Rezensionen

"This is a true atlas of endoscopy. Without question, its strength lies in the layout and depth of focus. ... The pictures are excellent and the format allows for a progression through an entire procedure from the standpoint of normal anatomy to pathological states. It is a very nice book that would complement the library of a newly minted endoscopist who lacks the ability to identify every nuanced finding that only comes with years of practice." (Peter Nau, Doody's Book Reviews, November, 2018)
