AO Principles of equine osteosynthesis

Synopsis:

The CD-ROM gives you easy access to the full AO ASIF Knowledge Base. With simple mouseclicks you can switch from text to figures to animation and to the AO ASIF teaching videos. This is ideal for preoperative planning, allowing you to develop a surgical strategy by working with standardized bones and instruments presented on the screen.
