"I like the detail captured in the photographs." "For the price I think the book is a good bargain..." (Doody's )
From the Back Cover
Dermoscopy(also known asmicroscopy) is a clinical technique which allows the detailed examination of pigmented skin lesions and which is more accurate diagnostically than other clinical approaches. This well-illustrated, highly acclaimed reference-one of the first to document this pioneering technique-provides a complete understanding of the use of dermoscopy, explaining the diagnostic features and examining benign melanocytic, melanoma and non-melanocytic pigmented lesions.
This book will be of interest to general practitioners, skin cancer specialists, dermatologists, and any clinician involved in diagnosing pigmented skin lesions and related conditions.
New features in the second edition:
*Thorough update throughout the book
*New chapter on computerized monitoring techniques
*122 new images of lesions
*CD-ROM with semi-interactive, self-test quiz showing 217 lesions
