- Covers basic and laboratory sciences extensively to blend with the basics required by the clinician for proper understanding of the disease process.
- Clinical photographs, illustrations, photographs of specimens and cultures, histopathology, flow charts and line diagrams are given extensively throughout the text to make relevant clinical situation self-explanatory.
