Review Quotes:
"The clinical vignettes are succinct and followed by answers and explanations which provide not only the correct diagnosis, but also expand the understanding of other pertinent issues which should be considered with similar patients. Other helpful features are the illustrations and figures, which provide a visual aid to clarify key points and reinforce the concept being addressed. This book is a succinct, readable text that can help hepatologists and gastroenterologists prepare for and pass their board exam"
-M. Kyle Jensen, MD, MSc, University of Utah, Practical Gastroenterology"This book has an interesting feature that I have never seen in any other Board review book. Each vignette is followed by a small "Why Might This Be Tested?" section. This a very useful feature for test-takers. This is a very useful book for anyone who wants to excel in hepatology."
