Main description:

Minimize diagnostic errors...maximize your productivity! Each title in the new Rapid Diagnosis in Ophthalmology series presents full-color images - with differential diagnoses - in side-by-side page layouts to enhance your diagnostic skills. A templated format expedites access to the specific guidance you need to diagnose the most common conditions - from simple to complex - encountered in practice.

Coverage of the key features, diagnostic criteria, and treatment options for Graves Disease, blepharoplasty, fractures, and eyelid tumors equips you with the latest guidance.
Hundreds of full-color images present conditions as they present in real life.
Common diagnostic pitfalls discuss what to look out for when making a difficult diagnosis.
A templated, color-coded layout and differential diagnosis boxes for each condition help you make quick, accurate clinical decisions.
A focus on the most common conditions encountered in practice allows you to efficiently formulate treatment plans and referrals.
