This atlas provides exquisite full-color clinical images of a complete range of gastrointestinal and liver diseases. Unique to this atlas, all endoscopic images are correlated with a selection of pathology, gross pathology and the latest radiologic modalities, including double-contrast upper and lower GI examinations and state-of-the-art CT for evaluating solid organs, helping you to confirm your diagnosis and demonstrating the sensitivity of each modality for that condition. This approach gives you a clearer picture of the nature of each condition than is available elsewhere. The concise accompanying text discusses each condition in terms of anatomy, etiology, pathophysiology and pathology. • Correlates all modalities including the latest in endoscopy and radiology • CD-ROM includes all images from the book for use in slide shows. Images can be sorted by modality, disease and chapter • CD-ROM also includes a video of many of the diagnostic presentations • Accompanying text clearly explains the essentials of anatomy, etiology, pathophysiology and pathology
