520			_aThis basic but comprehensive text is aimed at all healthcare professionals who need a clear understanding of medical virology. Written by two highly experienced virologists, the book is divided into five sections: 1) Individual viruses; 2) Other related agents; 3) Clinical syndromes; 4) Diagnostic techniques; 5) Patient management. The individual virus chapters provide information on incubation period, infectivity, control of infection and management. The clinical syndrome chapters provide information on the clinical presentation of disease, thus enabling the reader to search according to patient symptoms rather than referring to several individual virus chapters. The standard chapter formats, simple language and liberal use of tables, figures and algorithms enable quick access to key information, and the comprehensive coverage of all viral agents is unique in a practical guide of this size. _bCommon terms and phrases: aciclovir adenoviruses anti-HBe antibody antigen antiviral treatment assays asymptomatic At-risk groups babies cancer cause cell cervical chickenpox Chlamydia clinical congenital infection Cytomegalovirus detection develop disease drug encephalitis endemic Enteroviruses Epidemiology Route fetal fluid ganciclovir genital genotype haemorrhagic fever HCV infection healthcare workers Hepatitis E Herpes simplex virus HTLV human immune immunocompromised immunocompromised patients immunoglobulin immunosuppressed Incubation period indicates Infection control Infectious period influenza intravenous Laboratory diagnosis Management Treatment measles meningitis mumps neonatal norovirus occur onset oral outbreaks parainfluenza parvovirus parvovirus B19 pneumonia polio positive prevalence prophylaxis protein rabies rash reactivation replication respiratory result risk RNA virus rotavirus Route of spread rubella serological sexual smallpox specimens swab in virus symptoms syndrome Table tests Toxoplasma gondii transmission transmitted transplant recipients usually vaccine valaciclovir varicella-zoster virus vesicles viral virus culture virus infection viruses VZV infection warts weeks zoster
