Clinical Biochemistry an Illustrated Color Text

Clinical Biochemistry is an essential resource for today's changing medical curriculum. The subject is presented in a series of two-page 'learning units', each covering a particular aspect of clinical biochemistry. Four sections together provide a core grounding in the subject: introducing clinical biochemistry gives a basic insight into the workings of a modern hospital laboratory and the interpretation of test results; core biochemistry covers the bulk of routine analyses undertaken and their relevance in a clinical setting; endocrinology covers thyroid, adrenal, pituitary and gonadal function testing; specialized investigation provides an overview of less requested and yet important analyses.
