Your Medical Encyclopaedia contains detailed comprehensive illustrated information on 400+ medical conditions, which would fill more than 1000 pages of a standard medical text. All information in this encyclopaedia is current and has been cross-referenced with a number of highly reputable sources (see data source). This information is presented under the following headings for easy access;
-Disease Description. A clear and concise description of the disease including pathophysiology, incidence, complications and causes. Information is presented in a simple easy to understand format without sacrificing accuracy or detail. Explanations of disease processes are assisted by the appropriate use of illustrations and diagrams.
-Signs and Symptoms. A complete description of all the signs and symptoms associated with each disease.
-Investigations. A detailed list of recommended investigations which may be used to make a diagnosis. This includes laboratory tests, radiography, imaging, surgery and all other relevant investigations
-Treatment. A comprehensive and detailed description of current recommended treatments, including dosages for most medications
-Patient Management. Things the patient can do to assist in treatment where applicable.
Most medical information accessible to the general public is either over simplified and of questionable value, or too complicated to understand.
