Kanski’s Clinical Ophthalmology: A Systematic Approach

Description:


Filled with stunning images and in-depth information on both common and rare ophthalmic diseases and disorders, Kanski's Clinical Ophthalmology: A Systematic Approach, 10th Edition, is both a foundational knowledge source for trainees and a valuable reference for experienced practitioners. Dr. John Salmon, from the University of Oxford, has meticulously revised this classic text, retaining Dr. Kanski’s highly effective format of succinct text and visually dynamic presentation. Extremely well organized and comprehensive in scope, it provides authoritative, focused guidance on diagnosis and management, facilitating quick comprehension to enhance learning, aid exam preparation, and guide clinical practice.

Features:

• Uses targeted text, bulleted lists, tables and visual aids to highlight salient points across all ophthalmology subspecialties.
• Features more than 2,800 high-quality illustrations, including over 2,000 images depicting both common and rare conditions, with arrows to show the exact pathology.
• Includes the latest developments in cataract and refractive surgery, glaucoma, diabetes, macular degeneration, retinal vascular disease, pachychoroid disease, posterior uveitis, inflammatory eye disease, multiple sclerosis, thyroid eye disease, tumors, immunotherapy and genetics.
• Contains new, detailed illustrations of eye anatomy; improved case examples; and expanded sections on headache, seventh nerve palsy, cerebral visual impairment and Parkinson disease.
• Uses state-of-the-art imaging modalities such as OCT, OCT-A, fundus autofluorescence and ICG angiography to demonstrate subtle choroidal and retinal pathology.
• Offers detailed coverage of rare conditions: monkey pox infection, COVID conjunctivitis, silent sinus syndrome, torpedo maculopathy, CRB-1 associated retinal dystrophy, sagging eye syndrome and SLE scleritis.
• An digital version is included with purchase. The digital allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud.
