With major advances in technology there are thousands of clinical and
laboratory tests available, forming a key part of the diagnostic process
in the highly complex field of modern medicine. This handbook provides a
patient-orientated approach to investigation, with a comprehensive
review of specialty-related tests. Written in the Oxford Handbook style,
this book features references and up-to-date website links for extra
clinical detail.
This new edition has been revised to include the most recent
developments in investigatory tests, with clear step-by-step
instructions and updated illustrations to provide greater clarifying
background to the text. Written by an experienced team of active
clinicians, this is invaluable for junior doctors as a quick reference,
as well as senior medical students preparing for examinations.
