Long description:
Mayo Clinic Case Review for Pulmonary and Critical Care Boards is based on cases presented by faculty and fellows at the Mayo Clinic Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine Wednesday Morning Case Conference, a weekly conference where interesting cases are presented in a "guess the diagnosis" format. The presenter leads the audience through the patient's clinical course highlighting clinically important facts and pearls in a question-and-answer format. The presentation concludes with take-home points relevant to clinical practice.

Mayo Clinic is a tertiary-care referral medical center, which gives them the opportunity to see rare diseases or rare presentations of common diseases that don't present as frequently in other medical centers. Mayo Clinic Case Review for Pulmonary and Critical Care Boards is designed to be the optimal resource for board exam preparation in pulmonary and critical care medicine.
