Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Estimation of the Renal Function in Urinary Surgery
In the following pages will be found a clinical study of the present means of estimating the renal function in surgical diseases of the urinary organs which involves a study of symptomatology and of the application of physiological methods to diagnosis in urinary surgery. To this is added some discussion of the cases to which such methods are applicable.
The signs of a failing renal function are usually insignificant, and constant contact with large numbers of cases of urinary disease is necessary for their full appreciation. In describing them I have endeavoured to give each its proper measure of importance in an estimation Of the activity of the kidneys.
The physiological tests of the renal function have acquired, in the short time that has elapsed since their introduction, an important place in diagnosis. In this volume I have considered the clinical application of these methods in urinary surgery, and have given prominence to those which experience has taught me provide the most reliable information.
