Reviews
The edition 2005 of "Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology? is published by a team of international and well known clinicans in Gastrenterology
and Hepatology. The book is a reference book for daily use in a hospital and a textbook to prepare for he specialisation tests.
With
the electronic version, which is also available, you are able to access the complete book with a password through the internet, wherever
you are.
The book has 4 sections, that allow an easy and problem-oriented access. The first part contains the differential diagnosis
based on the direct symptoms of Gastroenterology in alphabetic order.
The second part describes the clinical gatstroenterologic
picture and the pathologic coherences; emphasis is on the clinical relevance with a very practical orientation, the information about
very rare clinical pictures is kept shorter. There are links for the interested reader to other publications.
The third part
deals with Gastroenterologic examination techniques. The indications of the examination techniques and the performance of the techniques
are presented in a very complex and clear way.
Part four elaborates on the possibilities of therapies (with drugs, endoscopic,
invasive/surgical) and shows the concrete use and limits of the respective therapy.
There are more than 1,600 illustrations
- many tables, excellently framed and clear pictures allow easy and fast access to the single topics. Pictures of clinical diagnosis
and typical histologic and radiologic diagnosis make the structure very clear and allow fast access to the single clinical pictures.
Especially
highlighted should be that all chapters consider the up to date research (partial in coloured diagrams) and that there is a critical
discussion to every part of the book.
