About this book

"...a worthwhile investment for... pathologists-in-training, dematologists-in-training, or medical students..." --Arch Dermatology

Intended for use as a practical manual, the information in this book has been presented so as to yield a differential diagnosis for each histological finding. With some 500 entities described, the contents of this handbook are quite inclusive. It serves not only as a primer in dermatopathology directed at residents of pathology and dermatology, but also as a useful reference for practicing dermatologists, general pathologists and primary care physicians who routinely evaluate skin lesions and biopsies in their practice.
