Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Diagnosis and Clinical Management

Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Diagnosis and Clinical Management will provide highly clinical, practical management guidance of this very common condition.  It will be perfect both for gastroenterology specialist trainees as a day-to-day learning tool to consult in clinic and also the more experienced physician as a quick and easy refresher to IBD and its management.

Focus throughout will be very much on the clinical management of IBD, with a variety of text features to enable clinicians to help treat their patients quickly and effectively and aid rapid-reference, easy navigation.  These features include:

1)      Real-life case studies in all relevant chapters.  Specialty trainees will really value these.

2)      Self-assessment MCQs related to the case studies, and all written to the level of GI Board exams.

3)      Key points at the beginning of every chapter

4)      “What to avoid” boxes throughout, crucial for avoiding mistakes/pitfalls in patient management.

5)      Clear step by step, management flowcharts in all relevant chapters

It will be far easier to digest and accessible than traditional textbooks on IBD which are long, pricey, more focused on the science behind IBD, and used predominantly as reference works for the seasoned specialist.

Written by the experts, Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Diagnosis and Clinical Management is an essential tool for all gastroenterologists managing patients with IBD.
