Slide Atlas of Fungal Infection - Diagnosis and Management - Part 3 : Subcutaneous and Unusual Infections

Fungal infections are assuming a greater importance, largely because of their increasing incidence amongst transplant patients and other immunocomprised individuals, including those with AIDS.

As a result, clinicians and microbiologists alike need to be familiar with the clinical presentation and methods for the diagnosis of these infections. The aim of this slide atlas is to provide a comprehensive set of diagnostic and teaching slides, with detailed notes illustrating both the clinical and mycological features of the pathogenic fungi most likely to be encountered, both in hospital and general practice, and to complement the text of the book "Fungal Infection - Diagnosis and Management". This series should prove useful to specialists across a wide range of disciplines and should meet a need within the clinical community as an aid to diagnosis.
