Cutaneous Biometrics

This work serves as a guide to biometrics in dermatology, an essential tool through which data evaluation results in valid interpretations. One part describes principal aspects of dermatological research, focusing on practical advice. A special section covers applied biometrics, providing the clinician and researcher with state-of-the-art guidelines to assess the severity of common skin diseases. An additional aspect, of interest to pharmacologists, addresses pharmacologic assays.
