Sommario/riassunto |
|
The Endocrine System at a Glance provides a highly illustrated and unambiguous introduction to the basic principles and mechanisms of endocrinology and the key endocrine organs, followed by sections on reproductive and metabolic endocrinology. Clinical scenarios contextualise the basic science and illustrate how endocrine conditions present, are diagnosed, and are treated on the wards. This third edition:Includes new material on basic diagnostic tests used in the diagnosis of endocrine disordersFeatures new material on cancer and endocrinologyIncludes MCQs for each cha |
