Description
The book features a collection of short cases the author has encountered in his practice. Each chapter condenses real-life clinical situations, describing patient presentation, what occurred during hospitalization, the thoughts of the treating team, and the approach to the case. It follows an engaging narrative, conversational approach and outlines where the team faltered, how they succeeded, the questions the case raised, and the pearls and pitfalls learned from mistakes and successes. It discusses clinicians’ approach to problems as well as benefits of a multidisciplinary approach. The book includes images and discussion, giving it a professional tone. It serves as an easy-to-read resource for radiologists, physicians, surgeons, trainees, interns, residents and medical students in their final years. The short and crisp chapters allow readers to read at their leisure without feeling overwhelmed by purely factual details. The lessons learnt in each case prove useful for readers and are unlikely to become outdated.
