Completely revised and updated, this one-volume clinical reference text addresses the physiology and pathology of the endoscopic practice. It also emphasises the endoscopic as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool. This second edition includes more than 800 colour photographs, endoscopic images and line drawings that help illustrate and enhance the clarity of some of the elaborate procedures and diagnoses of gastroenterology. The book concentrates more on the practical hands-on instructions in the endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of this disease. The expanded and improved text covers a wide range of gastroenterology topics such as the common gastritis, GERD and infectious diseases, benign and malignant lesions of the esophagus, the stomach, the intestines, and the pacreas and biliary tree. This is a valuable reference manual for all gastroenterologists, surgeons and internists that treat patients with gastrointestinal diseases.
