Clinical examination

Owen Epstein, John Cookson, G. David Perkin, David P. De Bono

Provides a clear, practical and illustrated guide to all aspects of patient examination. Designed to be accessible both to medical students just starting their clinical attachments and to more experienced readers, the writing style, the use of clinical photographs and explanatory drawings combine to explain and clarify the concepts and skills necessary to take a history and perform an examination. With an emphasis on the importance of anatomy and physiology as a prerequisite to the mastery of physical examination, the text is organised by body system, with each chapter structured the same way: underlying structure and function; signs, symptoms, and abnormalities; and patient examination.
