Additional thematic sections examine indications for liver transplantation and drug-induced liver injury.
This second edition incorporates six new chapters dedicated to modern practice developments, including adolescent care, endo-hepatology, diagnostic radiology in liver disease, and interventional radiology in liver disease.
