Description
The Endocrine System at a Glance provides a clear and concise introduction to the principles and mechanisms of endocrinology, covering the key endocrine organs and their functions. The book also explores reproductive and metabolic endocrinology, and includes clinical scenarios to illustrate how endocrine conditions present, are diagnosed, and are treated.
This third edition includes new material on basic diagnostic tests used in the diagnosis of endocrine disorders, as well as topics on cancer and endocrinology. With multiple-choice questions (MCQs) included at the end of each chapter, this book is ideal for medical students studying endocrinology, those preparing for clinical attachments, and professionals in allied health professions and nursing specialising in endocrinology.
