500 # # |a The comprehensive, completely updated 3rd Edition correlates basic pathophysiologic principles with radiologic, pathologic, and clinical aspects of disease to provide the reader with an integrated, user-friendly approach to the study of pulmonary medicine. It introduces basic anatomic and physiologic concepts, shows how to recognise and evaluate patients presenting with respiratory disease, and helps the reader to be better prepared to choose the most effective treatment. Review of the Previous Edition: "This text is clear, informative, and very well written...Recommended." --Chest Features: * Guides the reader through the anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology relevant to each disease classification to develop a conceptual framework, and then focuses on the clinical aspects and treatment of specific diseases. * Presents the relevant physiology for each class of disorders, and then discusses specific diseases within the class. * Highlights key points in useful margin notes, to facilitate review. * Includes appendices that cover simplified methods for interpreting pulmonary function tests and arterial blood gases, and practice problems on using basic respiratory equations, interpreting pulmonary function tests, and interpreting arterial blood gases. * WHAT'S NEW: * Emerging treatments for specific diseases, including leukotriene antagonists in the treatment of asthma, lung volume reduction surgery in the treatment of COPD, and potential new treatments for cystic fibrosis, such as gene therapy. * New uses of high-resolution CT scanning for interstitial lung disease.
