Kaplan Medical Master the Boards: Internal Medicine

For more than 20 years, Conrad Fischer and Kaplan Medical has helped thousands of students and doctors successfully prepare for the USMLE and board exams. Kaplan Medical Master the Boards: Internal Medicine familiarizes students with key words, concepts, and diagnoses on the challenging board exam. The test's most important concepts are outlined and explained by a topranked Kaplan Medical instructor. Designed both for first-time test takers and those seeking recertifi cation, this book organizes study prep by disease. Each chapter features words that help students recognize a problem diagnostically, the associations with related problems, the next steps in management, the best initial and most accurate diagnostic tests, the best initial and most effective therapy, and long-term problems. Basic science and statistics that are imperative to a doctor's general knowledge, but not directly related to the Boards, are organized in sidebars.
