Color Atlas and Synopsis of Laryngology

Description

Visually appealing and formatted to enable users to easily extract clinically relevant information, this superb new color atlas has been especially designed to serve the needs of all professionals who regularly see larynges, including otolaryngologists, speech-language pathologists, gastroenterologists, pulmonologists, and anesthesiologists.

All areas of laryngology, including esophagoscopy, are covered, with each disease entity presented in a uniform format, featuring symptoms, clinical appearance, causes, and treatment – the latter broken down into behavioral, medical and surgical treatments. Features include bulleted lists, tables and synopses, and extensive use of clinical images to illustrate key features of each disorder. Also included are special rubrics for diagnostic and therapeutic tips, including technical tips for surgery.
