The Uveitis Atlas

This Atlas provides cutting-edge information on uveitis, which represents a major achievement in clinical studies on uveitis. It includes more than three thousand imaging photos of uveitis patients, showing the disease’s complete profile and the spectrum of variations commonly encountered. Numerous therapeutic regimens are also presented, each of which is designed for a specific form of uveitis. The Atlas also incorporates the latest advances in uveitis studies, making it a unique and valuable resource for a broad readership, including ophthalmologists, postgraduate students, medical students and doctors in ophthalmology.

This highly illustrated practical guide to the clinical manifestations, investigation, diagnosis and beneficial treatment of uveitis and scleritis will surely become the standard aide-memoire for all practising ophthalmologists when confronted with either disease. An accurate diagnosis remains a challenge to the practitioner. Ongoing immunological research and development of new therapeutic agents continue to revolutionize the treatment of anterior and posterior uveitis and scleral inflammation. Drs Ganesh, Agarwal, George and Biswas have written from personal experience and evidence-based practice for the benefit of their readers and, most assuredly, their patients.

This text is part of the Color Atlas and Synopsis of Clinical Ophthalmology which was developed at Philadelphia’s famed Wills Eye Institute. The beauty of this series is the powerful combination of illustrative photographs and a summary approach to the text. While the seven ophthalmic subspecialties in this series, Cornea, Retina, Glaucoma, Oculoplastics, Neuroophthalmology, Pediatrics, and Uveiti, employ varying levels of visual recognition, a relatively standard format for the text is used for all volumes. The goal of the series is to provide an up-to-date clinical overview of the major areas of ophthalmology for students, residents, and practitioners in all the healthcare professions. This book is intended to provide comprehensive ophthalmologists, ophthalmology residents, and retina and cornea fellows with a single-volume, easily accessible resource covering all the major aspects of ocular inflammatory disease. It will also be useful for subspecialists who are looking for an up-to-date, concise review of the field. The book features more than 3750 full color illustrations throughout and a short, succinct format which includes Epidemiology and Etiology, History, Physical Examination, Differential Diagnosis, Laboratory and Special Examinations, Diagnosis, Prognosis, and Management.
