Designed for the psychiatrist in a general hospital setting as well as an outpatient practice, this guide presents basic strategies to be used in applying laboratory testing and general areas of laboratory evaluation, including a 'how to' for interpreting results. Readers will find particularly useful the numerous tables that supplement the text, as well as an appendix that features recommended workups for selected conditions.
