Numerous case studies help to illustrate the various techniques. Additional highlights of the book include a discussion of potential complications and their management in each chapter; boxed insets that emphasize the most important clinical facts; and one-of-a-kind chapters on radiologic imaging of head and neck skin cancer, management of skin cancer in skin of color, and intralesional and perilesional treatment of skin cancers.
