Atlas of Leprosy comprehensively covers the varied manifestations, including common and uncommon presentations, of leprosy, supported by patient photographs and additional video content, to help medical practitioners diagnose leprosy in the early stages.
With a detailed guide to approaching bedside diagnostic tests, this book will help readers to visualize common and uncommon presentations of leprosy, enabling effective diagnosis and treatment in this pre-elimination era, where increasingly difficulties in identifying its early stages can lead to preventable morbidity and deformity.
Clinicians, dermatologists, and trainees alike will find the wealth of high-quality illustrations and video demonstrations a vital guide to better diagnose this mycobacterial disease and combat resistance, relapse, reactions, and other any difficult challenges posed.
