This Thoracic Surgery Subscription-Based Review is designed to update your clinical knowledge base and help you pass your Thoracic Surgery exams. Emphasis is on evidence-based medicine and board-relevant standards of care, incorporating current best practice concepts, surgical approaches, and clinical follow-up strategies. As a result, this course provides a good review for your ABTS exams and a thorough review for physicians in practice. In addition, many of our previous participants found the course provided them with: improved diagnostic and planning strategies and a better understanding of the best surgical and non-surgical treatment approaches for the principal areas covered by Thoracic Surgeons and helped them recognize areas of weakness for further study.
