The book is a compact yet comprehensive practical resource which highlights all must-know information on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Covering the major issues dominating the field, this book offers a broad vision on NAFLD using key data for a deep and thorough understanding of the latest diagnostic methods, treatment options, potential complications, and disease management strategies to improve patient outcomes. The volume bridges the trans-disciplinary divide between hepatologists, cardiologists, nephrologists, psychiatrists, oncologists and dermatologists in order to cover in a single volume the complex management of NAFLD. It operates under a modern definition of NAFLD which acknowledges the range of presentations related to extrahepatic complications that hepatologists see in daily practice, while delving also into unanswered questions and future directions regarding treatment options. Offering practical, clinical guidance in addition to capturing the new promising therapeutic approaches in the pipeline, this book is an essential reference for clinicians, researchers and students |
