Mayo Clinic Internal Medicine Board Review

The Mayo Clinic Internal Medicine Board Review, Twelfth
Edition, is the result of the dedicated efforts of Mayo Clinic
physicians in multiple specialties whose primary mission is to
put the needs of the patient first. The field of internal medicine
is constantly changing as science is advanced, and this textbook
was written to provide readers with the essential elements for
the practice of internal medicine. Readers preparing for the
American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) Certification
and Maintenance of Certification examinations will find the
textbook comprehensive and easy to study. Additionally, readers
who want a reference or a general knowledge review in
internal medicine will find this textbook an important addition
to their medical library.
The Twelfth Edition features revised chapters that highlightcurrent knowledge in the practice of internal medicine.
Additionally, this edition includes over 200 new multiple- choice
questions designed to underscore key teaching points. Each
question includes a rationale in a standard format that describes
why the correct answer is right and why each incorrect answer
is wrong. This edition includes color- coded section tabs, and
within each chapter, key facts and key definitions are highlighted
separately from the main text to improve knowledge retention.
New chapters have been added on physician well- being and hospital
internal medicine. The goal was to create a book that is
comprehensive, useful, and easy to study.
