INTERDISCIPLINARY RHEUMATOLOGY RHEUMATOLOGY AND DERMATOLOGY (PB 2026)

Ask rheumatologists what is one of the things that they desire most and they’ll often say: I wish I knew more about other areas so I could care for patients whose disease manifestations cross over into other specialties. This is especially true of patients whose rheumatologic conditions have dermatology manifestations or are closely linked to dermatologic disease. The intersection between them lends well to interdisciplinary care, and rheumatologists, dermatologists and primary care physicians have the opportunity to expand their knowledge through the expertise shared in this book. This book serves as a dialogue between specialties and provides a masterclass from world-renowned experts.

Key Features:

• Provides a clinical approach to the patient with dermatologic manifestations of rheumatic disease.
• Details cutting-edge research with input from the world’s leading experts.
