Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This innovative and fully interactive guide to clinical rheumatology contains a wealth of multimedia material and provides an absorbing introduction suitable for medical students, general practitioners and trainees in rheumatology. Interactive case histories and quizzes - structured according to ability - engage the user in an active learning process which is in sharp contrast to traditional rheumatology texts. The application is heavily illustrated with clinical photographs, X-rays, explanatory diagrams, and images. In addition, specially prepared video clips clearly demonstrate physical examination and injection techniques. This interactive approach encourages directed self-learning and provides a unique, real-life simulation of the most common clinical problems encountered in the rheumatology clinic and the doctor's surgery. For more background information on rheumatological disorders, there is also very extensive and searchable database of articles on key topics in rheumatology. Taken together, these elements provide a self-contained introduction to the practice and study of rheumatology.
