Interactive Atlas of Leishmaniasis in the Americas: Clinical Aspects and Differential Diagnosis
|
This Interactive Atlas of Leishmaniasis in the Americas: Clinical Aspects and Differential Diagnosis is a joint effort of the Pan American Health Organization, experts on this subject, and other collaborators, with support from the Federico Lleras Acosta University Hospital Dermatology Center of Colombia and the health ministries of the countries of the Region. This is an important and innovative publication that takes a practical approach to the subject, allowing professionals to interactively search for and study photographs and illustrations that reflect their daily work in the health services. The atlas discusses the main concepts and knowledge about leishmaniasis in the Americas, illustrating the clinical situation of these diseases in 10 endemic countries, through 1,029 photographs and illustrations that can be viewed on smartphones, tablets, and desktop or laptop computers. We believe the material will be valuable for all students and professionals at all levels of health care, including those in other continents, when treating patients infected in the Americas. PDF: |
