Description
Clinical Biochemistry by Peter Rae, Mike Crane, and Rebecca Pattenden is a comprehensive guide to the fundamental science behind common biochemical investigations used in clinical practice. This textbook takes a system-based approach, exploring the underlying physiological rationale for tests and explaining each test within the context of disruption by disease. The book helps readers quickly develop the knowledge and skills required to select the appropriate investigations for diagnosis and management, as well as correctly interpret test results. It features full-colour flowcharts and algorithms detailing the rationale for tests, biochemical processes involved, and test procedures, making it easy to comprehend and reference. With its tenth edition, this textbook is now an indispensable resource for medical students and anyone looking to acquire a practical understanding of the scientific principles underpinning biochemical tests.
