Full of instant information, color photographs, diagrams, CT scans, and MRI, this atlas is the only full-color resource available for the immediate visual association and rapid identification of envenoming species, resultant lesions, the clinical outcomes of envenoming or poisoning, and the recommended treatment strategies to limit toxic exposures and injuries.

Covering the major subspecialties of toxicology, the information is presented in an as-needed fashion with chapters on general poisoning management and multipurpose antidotes followed by chapters on specific poisons and venoms. With no-nonsense, bulleted text, tables, figure legends, and diagrams this atlas provides an immediate reference for use in emergency differential diagnosis.

Features:

  • equips ER physicians with an immediate reference for hypothesis and emergency differential diagnosis
  • supplies instant information with more than 125 tables and line drawings of the pathophysiological mechanism and toxin biotransformation
  • provides the only available full-color atlas of human poisoning with vivid photographs and color plates of toxic substances and resulting lesions
  • combines four subspecialties of toxicology (Laboratory, Medical, Environmental, and Industrial) into one comprehensive text
  • offers a rapid review outline with visual recall stimuli for students and physicians preparing for image-intense certification and licensing exams
