Medical Parasitology (eBook, PDF)

A Body System Approach

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book offers a concise and clear overview of medically important parasites. It sets itself apart from traditional parasitology systematic books by adopting an integrated modular system, which is currently being introduced in many countries.

Parasites are categorized based on the body systems they infect. To avoid repetition, parasites with multisystem effects are grouped under the system they primarily infect, and they are cross-referenced in other relevant sections. The book thoroughly covers the various stages of a parasite's life cycle, modes of transmission, epidemiology, and diagnosis of parasitic diseases. To foster a better understanding of the connections between basic and clinical subjects, the text emphasizes the pathogenesis and subsequent clinical presentation of commonly encountered parasitic infections in humans. Moreover, the text includes current information on the ever-changing field of anti-parasitic treatment, serving as a valuable resource for practitioners.

Each section is accompanied by endnotes that highlight key points, and review questions are provided to facilitate comprehension and review. The book's original drawings, tables, and colored diagrams are designed to simplify the understanding of pathogenesis and structural morphology. For those seeking additional details, structural morphology and dosages of anti-parasitic drugs are presented.

The language is straightforward, making the book suitable for medical students and physicians alike, enabling them to approach more simplified literature with confidence.
