      The field of Clinical Microbiology is evolving at a rapid pace, perhaps more so than any other arm of laboratory medicine. This can be attributed to new technology, including high throughput gene sequencing, multiplex molecular assays, rapid evolution of antimicrobial resistance, and discovery of new pathogens. In addition, modern medical procedures, such as solid organ and stem cell transplantation, have resulted in an explosion of infections with agents that historically have been considered to be of low virulence. This issue of Clinics in Laboratory Medicine will highlight some of the advances in diagnostic microbiology, including MALDI-TOF MS, pathogen discovery, and personalized antimicrobial chemotherapy. In addition, one of the papers will focus on implementation of new technologies and how to maximize patient impact of these new methods.

    • Anatomie des organes et viscères

      L'anatomie se heurte souvent à une pédagogie descriptive relativement aride, avec une mémorisation basée sur un « par cœur » décourageant vite les bonnes volontés, notamment pour l'étude des viscères, organes et régions topographiques de la tête, du cou et du tronc. La bonne compréhension de ces structures anatomiques est toutefois indispensable à l'activité quotidienne des kinésithérapeutes. Cet ouvrage complète les 3 tomes d'Anatomie de l'appareil locomoteur, tout en gardant la même présentation par tableaux systématisée et synoptique illustrés d'un ou plusieurs schémas explicatifs.L'iconog... originale, tout en couleurs, répond au même souci de clarté, de simplicité et de vision spatiale. L'étudiant pourra entrer facilement dans des connaissances dépouillées au maximum de leur complexité sans pour autant tomber dans la vulgarisation, centrées sur l'essentiel et documentées.
