| Ever since the publication of the first edition in 1997, the Companion to Specialist Surgical Practice series has met the needs of surgeons in higher training and practising consultants by providing contemporary, evidence-based information on the sub-specialist areas relevant to their general surgical practice. All eight volumes are thoroughly edited and supported by evidence-based references to support key recommendations. This new Fourth Edition brings together the relevant state-of-the-art specialist information that the editors and authors consider important for the practising sub-specialist general surgeon. This new Fourth Edition is presented in colour throughout, including colour photographs of operative procedures, investigations and clinical signs throughout. The entire contents have been comprehensively updated with particular reference to the evidence-based content of each chapter. Full updates on the recent advances in the imaging of endocrine tumours using PET technology. |
