Titles in the Pocket Tutor series give practical
guidance on subjects that medical students and
foundation doctors need help with ''on the go'', at a
highly affordable price that puts them within reach of
those rotating through modular courses or working on
attachment. Topics reflect information needs stemming
from today's integrated undergraduate & foundation
courses: * Common investigations (ECG, imaging, etc) *
Clinical skills (procedures, patient examination, etc) *
Professional development (ethics, statistics, etc) *
Clinical specialties that students perceive as too small
to merit a textbook (psychiatry, renal medicine) Highly
structured, bite-size content helps novices combat the
''fear factor'' associated with day to day clinical
training, and provides ''just enough'' for a new
rotation. Key Points * Highly affordable price and
convenient pocket size format - fits in back pocket!*
Logical, sequential content: relevant basic science,
then a guide to understanding a normal image and the
building blocks of an abnormal image, before describing
clinical disorders * Clinical disorders illustrated by a
high quality abdominal radiograph, ultrasound, barium
study, CT scan or MRI, with brief accompanying text on
facing page that clearly identifies the defining feature
of the image (in other words, what is it that makes this
a stomach ulcer?) |
