More DescriptionThis book contains the basic science and clinical information necessary for medical students and newly qualified doctors to make efficient and informed use of diagnostic services offered by their clinical biochemistry department, or its equivalent, in order to select the appropriate tests in diagnosis, treatment and management of disease.The sixth edition has been completely revised to take account of the changes that have taken place in the diagnostic services within clinical practice. Clear explanations of the underlying molecular pathways precede lucid accounts of the diseases that result from disruption of physiological pathways in each system. Thereafter, the reader is provided with an integrated diagnostic approach together with case studies to help match the selection of tests to the clinical setting.
