A comprehensive, hands-on guide that explains how to accurately diagnose abdominal pain -- and treat its underlying causes

A Doody's Core Title for 2011

4 STAR DOODY'S REVIEW
This does a remarkable job of examining and summarizing the most recent diagnostic and therapeutic options for a very difficult yet common complaint. Its strength is in the discussion of best use and limitations of the testing modalities used to diagnose abdominal pain. It is more concise than many other similar texts, and covers the information extremely well.--Doody's Review Service
