Description
Using an innovative and process-oriented approach, this book enables students to evaluate, diagnose, and treat patients who present with clinical complaints. Whereas most internal medicine textbooks focus on specific diseases, this book helps students quantify and qualify symptoms; assess the diagnostic utility of the history, physical examination, and laboratory and diagnostic tests; and formulate the differential diagnosis
