Practical Dermatopathology: Textbook with CD-ROM
Doody's Rating: * * * *This concise book is meant to be used as a supplement to existing textbooks of dermatopathology. It is unique in that it has extensive lists of differential diagnoses of both pathologic findings and clinical findings. Opening with extensive lists of differential diagnoses, the book then continues with inflammatory and neoplastic entities in dermatopathology. The use of differential diagnoses of both clinical features and pathologic features is innovative. There are numerous excellent illustrations.This book has many excellent features and would be useful to general pathologists and dermatologists as well as residents in those fields. This is one of the few books that includes pathologic and clinical differential diagnoses and is one of the few concise texts. The photomicrographs are of excellent quality. A CD-ROM is included, so that some of the material could be used in lectures.Weighted Numerical Score: 94
