| Abstract
|
:
|
This is the first in the series of books dealing simultaneously with examination technique with detail pathophysiological principles, differential diagnosis and clinical interpretation, along with correlated and applied medicine about the common diseases. A medical student or a postgraduate doctor studying for higher exam will learn to take a good history, examine the patient, and find relevant applied medical knowledge, which is needed for assessment of the patient. It should also serve as an invaluable collection of facts to get through undergraduate or postgraduate examination. This book attempts to answer pertinent questions such as how? and why? about clinical examination while providing relevant information needed for a thorough bedside assessment. It is hoped that the book will not only serve to make a correct diagnosis by examination, but also give relevant differential diagnosis, and localize the disease and determine its cause. The book intends to fill this gap and inspire the reader to gain confidence not only in the performance of the examination but also to answer most bedside queries and problems. It will hopefully serve as an indispensable resource for preparation of undergraduate and postgraduate viva and bedside short and long case examination. The Volume II of this book includes a section on radiology and endoscopy. A wealth of diagrams and figures along with brief clinical note has been included to stimulate understanding and learning. As a stimulus for learning, picture test with MCQ and a short applied medical note has been added. The book is not a replacement for standard textbook on the subject, but it is hoped that it would be mastering relevant knowledge and clinical skills to diagnose and assess the patient's problem at the bedside and also prepare for undergraduate and postgraduate examination.
