Renowned as the most comprehensive atlas in gastroenterology, Dr. Yamada's masterwork enters a Third Edition with hundreds of brand-new and updated illustrations. The atlas uses the latest endoscopic imaging techniques as well as double contrast radiography, CT, isotopic scintigraphy, ultrasonography, MRI, positron emission tomography, and other state-of-the-art technologies to deliver the most advanced and detailed views available. This edition has a new Associate Editor, Neil Kaplowitz, MD, whose special area of expertise is hepatology. Sixteen new chapters focus specifically on liver disease. Other new chapters include genetic counseling and alternative medicine.

Over the past twenty years, thousands of physicians have come to depend on Yamada's "Textbook of Gastroenterology." Its encyclopaedic discussion of the basic science underlying gastrointestinal and liver diseases as well as the many diagnostic and therapeutic modalities available to the patients who suffer from them was-and still is-beyond compare. This new edition provides the latest information on current and projected uses of major technologies in the field and a new section on diseases of the liver. Plus, it comes with a fully searchable CD ROM of the entire content.
