内容説明
A state-of-the-art review of the field of respiratory infection, emphasizing diagnostic techniques and new treatments for infectious diseases. It includes a scientific review of infectious pathogens, likely pathogens for lung infection, and the specifics of each respiratory pathogen, as well as diagnostic methods, therapy and prevention. Tables and illustrations reinforce the material. The book is intended for chest physicians, internists, and infectious disease specialists.
