The aim of the book is to fill the gaps in the techniques of examination, which are inevitable until sound practice based on experience is achieved. The book avoids detail, an approach which is justified by the author in claiming that the most frequent mistake is a failure to diagnose the common. There are illustrations dealing with the practical aspects of clinical examination which are arranged in an essentially linear sequence following the traditional lines of inspection, palpitation and the examination of movements and pertinent anatomical structures.Item type | Current library | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
