(Producer) This CD-ROM is a multimedia patients' guide to Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. The underlying pathological mechanisms, the diagnosis and therapy of these diseases, and the functioning and physiology of the healthy bowel are explained in great detail. The chapter "Life with a chronic disease" provides useful information on how to cope with these diseases and how they affect work, leisure time, nutrition, and sexuality. Also discussed are local self-help groups and selected national support groups, which can help patients get in touch with specialized physicians or hospitals and be of assistance in finding further information.
