Description
A highly practical approach to occupational dermatoses combined with the skill and experience of specialists in clinical and experimental dermatology. The spectrum of diseases they discuss includes: * allergic and irritant dermatitis * contact urticaria * photodermatoses * systemic reactions due to percutaneous absoorption * infectious diseases * skin tumours, and * diseases predisposed to occupational skin problems. Great care is taken throughout to provide the information urgently needed for daily patient management, with concise tables, algorithms, and figures on how to optimise the diagnostic procedure for high-quality patient care and expert opinion. This handbook provides the relevant job descriptions, job-specific diagnostic algorithms and a detailed description of allergens and irritants such that readers can master even difficult and unusual problems in occupational dermatology.
