Interactive Rheumatology Tutor: A Multimedia Guide to Clinical Rheumatology on CD-ROM

By Ray Armstrong

This innovative and fully interactive guide to clinical rheumatology contains a wealth of multimedia material and provides an absorbing introduction suitable for medical students, general practitioners and trainees in rheumatology. Interactive case histories and quizzes-- structured according to ability--engage the user in an active learning process that is in sharp contrast to traditional rheumatology texts. The application is heavily illustrated with clinical photographs, x-rays, explanatory diagrams, and scan images. In addition, specially prepared video clips clearly demonstrate physical examination and injection techniques. The interactive approach encourages directed self-learning and provides a unique, real-life simulation of the most common clinical problems encountered in the rheumatology clinic and in surgery. For more background information on rheumatological disorders, there is also an extensive, searchable database of articles on key topics in rheumatology. Together, these elements provide a self-contained and comprehensive introduction to the practice and study of rheumatology.
