Extensive introductory material explains in simple and concise language the strengths and weaknesses of different approaches that the clinical laboratory uses in assisting the physician in making infectious disease diagnoses. All of the approaches described are encountered in the cases that follow. The 68 cases are presented as "unknowns" and represent actual case histories the authors have encountered at two university teaching hospitals. Each case is accompanied by several questions to test knowledge in four broad areas: 1) the etiologic agent's characteristics and laboratory diagnosis; 2) pathogenesis and clinical presentation; 3) epidemiology; and 4) prevention and, in some cases, drug resistance and treatment. Whenever possible, the authors have incorporated cellular microbiology into the case discussion. Over 100 photographs allow students to familiarize themselves with the appearance of specific microorganisms in appropriate clinical settings. An extensive glossary explains the medical terminology to help students understand the language of medicine and make the cases accessible to all readers.
