A popular and easy-to-use guide, this book is a must-have tool for
clinical consultations in genetics and genomic medicine. Ideal for
quick reference during practice, it covers the process of
diagnosis, investigation, management, and counselling for patients.
With a strong evidence base and international guidelines, it puts
reliable and trustworthy guidance at your fingertips. Designed for
use as a first-line guide, the A to Z format ensures it's
accessible, and the simple layout makes it easy to assimilate
information. Highly illustrated, the book also contains up-to-date
glossaries of terms used in genetics and dysmorphology providing
quick reference for key concepts. The second edition is an eagerly
anticipated update of the gold standard in the specialty. It covers
new developments in the field, particularly the advent of
genome-wide sequencing and major updates in cancer. Fifteen new
topics have been added, including Sudden cardiac death, Neonatal
screening, and Ciliopathies. The authors have used their experience
to devise a practical clinical approach to many common genetic
referrals, both outpatient and ward based. The most common
Mendelian disorders, chromosomal disorders, congenital anomalies
and syndromes are all covered, and where available diagnostic
criteria are included. In addition there are chapters on familial
cancer and pregnancy-related topics such as fetal anomalies,
teratogens, prenatal and pre-implantation diagnosis and
non-invasive prenatal testing. The book also provides information
on the less common situations where management is particularly
complex. Both practical and pertinent, Oxford Desk Reference:
Clinical Genetics and Genomics is the companion you need by your
side during clinical consultations.
