Description
"Should serve as a standard against which all future atlases will be measured." - "New England Journal of Medicine", on a previous edition. This trusted, best selling color atlas presents a wide array of skin conditions, from the most common to life-threatening melanoma and HIV/AIDS. It retains its easy-to-use format that depicts each disease entity, then thoroughly describes the disorder with a brief overview: epidemiology and etiology; history; physical exam; differential diagnosis; laboratory findings; diagnosis; and management. Now it features dozens of new and improved illustrations, current management strategies, an updated two-color design, and case reports where appropriate. Unsurpassed for its low price, extensive use of superb color illustrations, and ease of use by health care professionals at all levels. "Erratum Color Atlas and Synopsis of Clinical Dermatology, Fourth Edition Portions of the Index" have incorrect page numbers. A corrected copy of the entire index may be found under "Healthcare and Medicine".
