Scott Brown's Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery (CD-ROM)

Scott-Brown's Otolaryngology is used the world over as the definitive reference for trainee ENT surgeons, audiologists and trainee head and neck surgeons, as well as specialists who need detailed, reliable and authoritative information on all aspects of ear, nose and throat disease and treatment. This new edition has been fully updated by an international team of editors and contributors and is highly illustrated in colour throughout. The majority of the chapters are evidence-based and each contains useful features including key points, best clinical practice guidelines, details of the search strategies used to prepare the material, and suggestions for future research. These features provide quick access to relevant information about clinical conditions, and a starting point for further research. The stand-alone CD-ROM contains the same content as the print edition, is searchable, and has references linked to PubMed. It provides trainee surgeons (ENT and Head and Neck), audiologists and ENT physicians with a more portable version of this extensive reference work, and access to downloadable figures, bookmarking and annotation tools.
