<p><b>Authored by the very best, Cotton and Williams’ <i>Practical Gastrointestinal Endoscopy</i> is the basic primer for endoscopy around the world, and a “must-have” book for all gastroenterologists and endoscopists learning their trade.</b><br /> <br /> For the last 30 years, <i>Practical Gastrointestinal Endoscopy</i> has provided clear, practical expert guidance on the fundamentals of endoscopy practice; from patient positioning and safety, to how to perform different endoscopic procedures, as well as the very latest in therapeutic techniques and technological advances.</p> <p>Readers always value the step-by-step, highly practical approach, especially the outstanding color illustrations demonstrating exactly how best to perform endoscopy. Add to this the expertise and prestige of the world-famous author team, and the final result is an essential tool for all those looking to improve their endoscopic skills.</p> <p>Peter Cotton, Christopher Williams and Brian Saunders are joined in this seventh edition by two current leaders in UK and US endoscopy, Adam Haycock and Jonathan Cohen. Together, they have fully revised the existing text with the very latest in clinical practice, as well as introducing the following brand<br /> new features to the book:</p> <p>• Key learning points in every chapter</p> <p>• Much more information on mucosal resection techniques and small bowel endoscopy—for capsule and “deep” enteroscopy</p> <p>• The latest recommendations and guidelines from the ASGE, ACG, UEGW and BSG</p> <p>• 37 high-quality videos illustrating optimum endoscopy practice, all referenced via “video eyes” in the text</p> <p>• A clinical photo imagebank, consisting of an equivalent clinical photo for selected line illustrations; perfect for downloading into scientific presentations</p> <p>• Self-assessment MCQs to test main learning points</p> <p>Cotton and Williams’ <i>Practical Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 7th Edition</i>, is modern, as masterful as ever, and once again, the number one endoscopy manual for a whole new generation of gastroenterologists and endoscopists.</p>
