Frameworks for Internal Medicine 1st Edition By André M. Mansoor, MD , Assistant Professor of Medicine, Divi- sion of Hospital Medicine, Director, Procedure Service, Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, Oregon

DESCRIPTION Introducing an innovative, systematic approach to understand- ing differential diagnosis, Frameworks for Internal Medicine helps students learn to think like physicians and master the methodology behind diagnosing the most commonly encountered conditions in internal medicine. This highly visual resource draws on the proven “Chalk Talk” model and connects case-based, Q&A-style assessments of the organ systems of the body to corresponding “frameworks” that guide students through each step in the differential diagnosis process. Quickly accessible and available online for fast review, these unique frameworks not only equip students for success in clerkship but also help ensure more confident differential diagnoses in clinical settings. FEATURES ▶ ▶ Innovative “framework” approach clarifies the thought process behind differential diagnosis like no other resource. ▶ ▶ Straightforward, case-based, Q&A-style format guides students step-by-step through the assessment of each organ system. ▶ ▶ Cases in each chapter familiarize students with the top 50 most commonly encountered internal medicine diagnoses, as well as specific sub-types. ▶ ▶ Detailed introduction and robust appendix equip resident educators with valuable teaching assistance.
