All chapters follow a consistent template including the following features:

– Evidence–based diagnosis, including relevant algorithms, laboratory and imaging tests, and potential pitfalls when diagnosing a patient
– Disease management including commonly used medications with dosages, when to perform surgery, management algorithms and how to prevent complications
– How to manage special populations, ie, in pregnancy, children and the elderly
– The very latest evidence–based results, major society guidelines (AASLD/EASL) and key external sources to consult
In addition, the book comes with a companion website housing extra features such as case studies with related questions for self–assessment, key patient advice and ICD codes. Each guide also has its own mobile app available for purchase, allowing you rapid access to the key features wherever you may be.
