Clinical Investigations on the Move PDF

Preface

Have you ever found interpreting clinical investigations overwhelmingly complicated? Are you simply short of time and have exams looming? If so, this short revision guide will help you. Written by students and junior doctors, this book presents information in a wide range of formats including flow charts, summary tables and authentic images annotated with comments. During the course of writing this book, the students among us have now become qualified doctors ourselves.

Always remember to both request and review clinical investigations in the context of clinical findings. Medicine is both an art and a science, so be thoughtful and consider your findings prior to launching a further round of potentially expensive and futile investigations.

No matter what your learning style, we hope you will find this book appealing and easy to read. We think that this innovative style will help you, the reader, to connect with this often feared topic helping you to learn and understand it (maybe even enjoy it!) while also helping to prepare you for exams and life as a junior doctor.

We of course welcome your feedback on how this book measures up and how you feel it could aid your study and work better. Every day is a new learning experience for us all.
