Produktbeschreibung

This second Uveitis volume provides the ophthalmologist with the most current understanding of the pathogenesis of the most frequent immune-mediated disorders of the eye and a practical approach to these diseases. It fills the gap between textbooks and original research publications and focuses on clinical aspects of inflammatory eye diseases. It covers a broad spectrum, including diseases affecting the conjunctiva, sclera and cornea, as well as intraocular inflammation, and it includes basic research aspects, such as immune mechanisms and genetics. The book is easy to read with highly structured core messages and summaries for the clinician.
