Clinical Synopsis and Color Atlas of Skin Tumors

The clinical appearance of skin cancer manifests itself in different ways, sometimes making it difficult for clinicians to make an accurate diagnosis.

This practical colour atlas presents high quality photographs of skin tumours accompanied by a detailed description of each condition. Beginning with an introduction to skin cancer, each of the following chapters examines different types of tumour including those from keratinocytes and melanocytes, and appendageal, soft tissue, vascular and metastatic skin tumours.

The concise, user-friendly format makes this book an invaluable reference for both trainees and practising dermatologists.
