Dr. Alfred W. Kopf, a pioneer in education and in the clinical aspects of malignant melanoma, has joined forces with Dr. Ralph Braun and Dr. Ashfaq Marghoob to produce this new color atlas. The dermoscopy is a new and valuable tool for early recognition of melanoma and suspicious precursor lesions. This atlas provides a concise and practical guide that can be used as a tutorial for learning dermoscopy. It is a quick reference that can be used during the clinical evaluation of a particular lesion and as a general reference book. The editors provide dermatologists and general practitioners with an up-to-date resource on a technique that is considered by many to be the standard of care for assessing pigmented lesions.

Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
…The atlas is unputdownable. It also features something that many dermoscopy books lack: all of the key descriptive features of the images are included in a box just beneath the picture. There is no need to search for information….The chapters are authored by the most prominent experts in the field….
…I am confident that the informative text and spectacular images will trigger continued enthusiasm.

Review,
By John (Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: An Atlas of Dermoscopy (Encyclopedia of Visual Medicine Series) (Hardcover)
Nice atlas with plenty of pics. It goes over all the various dermoscopic findings and dermoscopic algorithms/pattern analysis. Its only drawback is the lack of "circles and arrows" to indicate what is being described. If you are unfamiliar with the various dermoscopic findings then you might rather purchase the cd version of this atlas, which appears comparably priced, which interactively points out the various dermoscopic findings and purchase an additional cheaper atlas that covers pattern analysis/dermoscopic algorithms. Or you could by both this atlas and the cd, but that is kind of pricey.
