Gastrointestinal Disease, An Endoscopic Approach, is the first full-colour clinical reference work to address the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management disorders of the GI from an endoscopic perspective. Comprehensive yet readable, this book brings gastroenterology into the modern age of fiber optic endoscopy. Meticulously edited by six eminent academic gastroenterologists, with chapters authored by 120 of the foremost names in the field, Gastrointestinal Disease covers the range of GI problems: from common gastritis, GERD, and infectious diseases, through benign and malignant lesions of the esophagus, stomach, intestines, pancreas and biliary tree. Chapters supply practical, hands-on instruction in the endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of these disorders. Hundreds of full-colour endoscopic images as well as black and white line drawings illustrate the procedures and diagnoses. Special chapters--such as Preparation of the Patient, The Endoscopy Unit, Complications, and Prevention of Infection--make the book useful both as a learning text and an authoritative reference.
