New Book: "Imaging in Dermatology"

"Imaging in Dermatology" edited by Drs Michael R.Hamblin, Pinar Avci and Gaurav K.Gupta (ISBN: 978-0-12-802838-4) is a 2016 ELSEVIER publication that all the readers of this blog should be aware of.
I just ordered the book on Amazon for $120, and I can't wait to ready it and perhaps interview the authors (stay tuned). Congrats to the all the contributing Authors, Editors and ELSEVIER for their interest and work on the topic.


The table of content is rich and comprehensive (see Preview on Google Books here):
