I.Introduction.
In presenting to the veterinary profession this treatise on Regional Iodine Therapy, I do so with the object of bringing into the light certain clinical facts that have to do with the topical application of iodine in veterinary patients, and to discuss, from the standpoint of the clinician, those particular pathological conditions to which these facts apply.
It will be further my purpose to point out to the reader the special indications for topical iodine medication which have, in the past, been overlooked by the practitioner of veterinary medicine.
Throughout the treatise I shall confine myself to the exposition of only such matter as I have found to be compatible with the practical phases of veterinary science in the conduct of my own practice.
