Product Description

The most practical, authoritative guide to managing digestive and liver diseases

A Doody's Core Title ESSENTIAL PURCHASE for 2011!

"I found this book contemporary and well written, with knowledgeable authorship and recommend it for a handy reference for students, primary care providers and in a busy practice, but not for detailed evaluations. It certainly is worthwhile spending the $69.95 to have it as a handy reference on the shelf of practitioners."--Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology

Authored by expert physicians at Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women's Hospital, CURRENT Diagnosis & Treatment: Gastroenterology, Hepatology, & Endoscopy offers a streamlined, templated presentation that simplifies the diagnosis and medical management of digestive and liver diseases.

Clinically relevant, up-to-date coverage of digestive and liver disorders, and related medical and surgical procedures, including endoscopy:

High-yield coverage of the entire spectrum of gastroenterology and hepatology, from stomach and esophageal to pancreatic and liver disorders
Complete review of advances in diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy
“Essentials of Diagnosis” bulleted lists deliver instant guidance on identifying both common and rare digestive disorders
Over 90 full-color endoscopic and other images of GI disorders
Over 50 radiographic images clarify the use of the many currently available imaging techniques
Key information from related fields, including GI surgery, and subspecialities such as liver transplantation, bariatric surgery, inflammatory bowel disease, and motility disorder

3.0 out of 5 stars Endoscopy only, not GI patient mgmt, July 15 2010

By An Amazon Customer - Published on Amazon.com

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: CURRENT Diagnosis & Treatment Gastroenterology, Hepatology, & Endoscopy (Paperback)

Was not what I was expecting. It is mainly only on endoscopy. Years ago (1996 or so) Lange had an excellent Current Gastroenterology Diagnosis & Treatment book, that's what I thought this was. It is not.

I thought this was the updated version of CGDT.

So this is not helpful in management, only on endoscopy findings.
