| Abstract

:
|
Hepatology is closely related to numerous fields of medicine such as infectious diseases, toxicology, immmunology, oncology, tropical medicine, laboratory diagnostics, cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, systemic diseases and occupational medicine. This book provides an updated and systematic overview of the field. The text is abundantly supplemented by 380 colour illustrations and 276 colured tables, which help to bridge the gap from "seeing" to "understanding" on to diagnostic and therapeutic "acting. In addition, step-by-step programmes, flow charts, check-lists and textual emphasis make the reader aware of the principles of economy and quality management in diagnostics and therapy Each of the of the forty chapters is followed by a detailed bibliography (over 7,300 references in total), enabling the reader to work in depth on specific topics. The conservative and invasive/surgical therapy options and recommendations presented in the individual chapters are systemically summarized and completed in the final chapter. Aspects of social medicine are included. human body and inth various enviromental impacts.
