Providing a pictorial reference to every aspect of hypertension, An Atlas of Investigation and Diagnosis reviews the basics of blood pressure measurement, clinical examination and assessment of risk factors. Numerous clinical photographs support a concise, highly structured text that highlights characteristic presenting signs, as well as tests by which diagnoses may be confirmed and differentials excluded. Covering the mechanisms that underpin the several different forms of hypertension, and the investigations appropriate to making a correct diagnosis in each case, the text also contains a range of flowcharts, checklists and algorithms to summarize key facts and present the reader with a rapid reference to the diagnostic process.
