Index

"In some ways, inflammatory diseases are more challenging than pigmented lesions diagnostically. This book does an admirable job of helping demystify the process."
Patricia Wong, MD (Private Practice)

The dermoscopic patterns of numerous dermatologic diseases have here been investigated and disseminated; this book collects the results, to help all those who want to improve their skills as clinicians and acquire additional knowledge on the submicroscopic morphology of skin diseases.
