  • Yamadas Atlas of Gastroenterology

    John Wiley and Sons Ltd Yamadas Atlas of Gastroenterology

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisYAMADA''S Atlas of Gastroenterology Gastroenterology and Hepatology remain highly visual specialties, in part because of the tremendous accessibility of the luminal gastrointestinal tract to endoscopic examination and biopsy, and other internal digestive organs to advanced imaging modalities and sampling. Thus, in addition to standard views of cross-sectional imaging and histopathologic analysis used in many disorders, the field encompasses multimodal endoscopic imaging, which has continued to advance over the last decade. This sixth edition of Yamada''s Atlas of Gastroenterology continues to offer diverse images that provide an overview of the field of digestive diseases, and aims to provide a synopsis through pictures and illustrations rather than through text. Consequently, this Atlas is designed to complement and accompany the primary textbook in the field, the seventh edition of Yamada's Textbook of Gastroenterology.

    Book SynopsisBlood and Marrow Transplantation Long Term Management Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) provides curative therapy for a variety of diseases. Over the past several decades, significant advances have been made in the field of HCT, to the point where HCT has become an integral part of treatment modality for a variety of hematologic malignancies and some nonmalignant diseases. HCT remains an important treatment option for a wide variety of hematologic and nonhematologic disorders, despite recent advances in the field of immunologic therapies. Factors driving this growth include expanded disease indications, greater donor options (expanding unrelated donor registries and haploidentical HCT), and accommodation of older and less fit recipients.The development of less toxic pretransplant conditioning regimens, more effective prophylaxis of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), improved infection control, and other advances in transplant technology have resulted in a rapidly groTable of ContentsForeword by Professor John Barrett vii Foreword by Professor John Goldman viii List of Contributors ix Section 1 Late effects concepts 1 1 Introduction to long‐term survivorship after hematopoietic cell transplantation 3Bipin N.

Understanding of the genetic basis of congenital heart disease and the embryology of cardiac development has progressed even more rapidly. What has not changed is that optimal outcomes for children and adults with congenital heart disease can only be achieved by a collaborative team effort. The team includes not only congenital cardiac surgeons but also pediatric cardiac nurses, pediatric cardiologists, perfusion and respiratory technicians, pediatric cardiac intensivists, pediatric cardiac anesthesiolTrade Review"… [A] very comprehensive book, characterized by clarity of description, logic of presentation, and attention to detail…Dr. Jonas has significantly expanded on the treatment of some subjects…and has chosen to include several entirely new chapters…on anesthesia, pediatric cardiac intensive care, and pediatric cardiovascular nursing care, in addition to mechanical circulatory support and cardiac transplantation…the e-version of the book includes hyperlinks to a series of narrated operative videos…that are of extremely high quality…Every aspect of the Second Edition builds on the foundation established with the First Edition.
