Springer Science & Business Media, 2000 - Medical - 1300 pages
This text combines a highly practical approach to the occupational dermatoses with the skill and experience of scientists who have specialized in this area of clinical and experimental dermatology. The spectrum of diseases covered includes allergic and irritant dermatitis, contact urticaria, photodermatoses, systemic reactions due to percutaneous absorption, infectious diseases and skin tumors. Furthermore, diseases predisposing to occupational skin problems such as atopic dermatitis and psoriasis are discussed. This book provides badly needed information for daily patient management and presents precise job descriptions and algorithms how to optimize the diagnostic procedure for high quality patient care and expert opinion in occupational dermatology.
