Medical Sentinel Index
Volume 1 (1996)
* The number in parentheses denotes the issue number of the Medical Sentinel comprising those pages in the text. Volume 1 (1996) contained three issues, Spring (1), Summer (2), and Fall (3) 1996. Beginning with Volume 2 (1997), the pages are numbered consecutively thus obviating the need for issue number designation in parantheses.
