This fully revised edition of Clinical Biochemistry offers essential reading for today’s medical student and all those who require a concise, practical introduction to this subject. Topics are clearly presented in a series of double-page ‘learning units’, each covering a particular aspect of clinical biochemistry. Four sections provide a core grounding in the subject:

Introducing clinical biochemistry gives a basic insight in to the workings of a modern hospital laboratory and the interpretation of test results;

Core biochemistry covers the bulk of routine analyses undertaken and their relevance in a clinical setting;

Endocrinology covers the thyroid, adrenal, pituitary and gonadal function testing;

Specialised investigation provides an overview of less requested yet important analyses.

Covers clinical biochemistry from the point of view of the clinician using the diagnostic service
Presents topics in easily accessible two-page spreads
Includes mini case histories, key point boxes, flowcharts, and summary points
Well illustrated with four-color drawings and clinical photographs
