Descripción

Ideal for dermatologists, dermatopathologists, and trainees of all levels, Dermatology: Visual Recognition and Case Reviews, 2nd Edition, presents classic visual clues that point you to the correct diagnosis – the key first step in effective management and care. This highly visual resource helps you hone your skills in visual recognition with a practical focus on images of clinical and histopathologic skin diseases rather than dense text. The unique format enhances your learning experience and offers clear examples of a successful framework that can be used when approaching a patient.

Puntos claves

  • Content organized by visual patterns (color, shape, pattern, and body part), maximizing your ability to recognize disease – the same way a patient would normally present in the clinic.

  • High-quality clinical and microscopic images for nearly all entities, helping to enhance your diagnostic and clinicopathologic correlation skills.

  • Key difference pages, enabling you to quickly compare and contrast different diseases in a given differential diagnosis that can look similar but are distinguishable.

  • Newly reorganized, color-coded table of contents for quicker navigation.

  • New flashcards online to test your ability to recognize diseases by visual presentation.

  • Case reviews that provide clear examples of specific approaches to patient evaluation.

  • Enhanced eBook version included with purchase, which allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of devices.

Reseñas

"There is no shortage of excellent visual dermatology atlases. What makes this one different is that the author has thoughtfully paired the clinical color photograph with its corresponding histologic presentation. This is helpful because readers can train their eyes to understand what is occurring on a microscopic level within the tissues." ©Doody’s Review Service, 2022, Patricia Wong, MD (Private Practice)
