Color Atlas of ENT Diagnosis

Since its first publication in 1974, the "Color Atlas of ENT Diagnosis" has established itself as an essential overview of ENT conditions, concisely written and brilliantly illustrated with a wealth of high-quality color photographs and drawings.

The focus is on the examination and diagnosis of both common and atypical disorders, with brief details of medical and surgical treatment where appropriate. "The Color Atlas of ENT Diagnosis" is a key introduction for ENT residents and medical students, and an invaluable reference for physicians and to those in allied specialties.
