Everything you need to know about Clinical Genetics and Genomics … at a Glance!
Comprehensive and accessible overview of genetics in clinical practice with a unique systems-based approach
Clinical Genetics and Genomics at a Glance combines the clinical and scientific facets of a complex subject in a way that is both accessible and succinct to facilitate the diagnosis, treatment, and management of common genetic conditions.
Using the popular “at a Glance” format, this book enables the reader to gain a solid understanding of the practical applications of clinical genetics in different systems. Covering a wide range of topics, this book is perfect for an introduction on the subject texts or for revision purposes and are useful throughout medical school and beyond.
Clinical Genetics and Genomics at a Glance uses a systemic approach following all the systems in the body:
General topics such as inheritance, cytogenetic and molecular genetic techniques, how to read a genetic test report, and genetic counselling
Chapters on key conditions with a genetic basis, organised by body systems, for example:
Cardiology topics such as congenital heart disease, ischaemic heart disease, cardiomyopathies, arrhythmias, and sudden cardiac death
Dermatology topics such as tuberous sclerosis, Gorlin syndrome, Darier disease, lamellar ichthyosis, mal de meleda, cutaneous porphyria, and epidermolysis bullosa
Endocrinology topics such as adrenal gland conditions, androgen insensitivity syndrome, ambiguous sex syndromes, anorchism, Klinefelter syndrome, Turner syndrome, and diabetes mellitus
Clinical Genetics and Genomics at a Glance is a helpful learning aid that can be used at various stages of medical training to gain an understanding of the aspects of clinical genetics and the fundamentals behind the specialty. The text also functions as a useful on-ward reference tool for practitioners of all experience levels.

紙本+全文電子書(Enhanced Digital Version Included)
First published in 1966, Thompson and Thompson Genetics and Genomics in Medicine has become an essential textbook for medical students, genetic counseling students, students in laboratory medicine, and more advanced trainees. With its focus on fundamental principles in human genetics and genomics and their application to medicine, the book has served many as a well-thumbed resource they return to over and over.
Such students can continue to depend on this valuable text, joining those in newer fields of genome data analysis for all they need to know about genetics and genomics throughout their basic science training, clinical placements and beyond. Coverage includes new discoveries―such as the functional roles of non-coding RNAs, chromatin regulation and epigenetics―latest technologies, and new diagnoses they are enabling.
Under an expanded title, this ninth edition has been completely revised by a new editorial team overseeing a large cadre of contributing authors. Support groups have also assisted to update illustrations featuring beautiful images of those living with genetic conditions.
Comprehensive coverage of: genomes in biology and medicine; copy number and structural genomic variation; novel discoveries; latest technology; and new genetic diagnoses
Over 40 clinical case studies, capturing the latest challenges of variable expression, pleiotropy, and complex disorders through new diagnostic strategies
Full-color text, illustrations, updated line diagrams, and clinical photos
End-of-chapter questions and comprehensive answers to challenge the reader to consolidate the material into practice and prepare for examinations
USMLE-style and multiple choice questions available as part of the eBook
An enhanced eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access all the text, figures and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud
Updated and new clinical cases, supported with photography by the not-for-profit organization, Positive Exposure
New content on growing role of sequencing and novel functional assays in diagnosis and screening of genetic conditions
New chapter on Epigenetics
Clearer and more precise terminology, in response to contemporary and evolving guidelines
New sections describing the use (and need for) genetic information from diverse populations, including unique indigenous and founder populations, for diagnosis and management.
