Description

Diseases of the skin are a common problem and because the availability of a dermatologist may be limited, patients often present to a primary care physician. Physicians must be able to use history and physical findings to recognize skin conditions, understand the immunologic basis of skin diseases, be knowledgeable regarding new therapeutics in atopic dermatitis and address treatment and advancements in skin cancer management in order to provide proper patient care.

At the conclusion of this session, the participant should be able to:

  • Recognize commonly encountered dermatologic conditions & employ clues to distinguish them from other differentials
  • Predict dermatologic conditions that may be associated with a systemic disease
  • Employ knowledge of interrelated conditions to create a wholistic approach to patient care
