La medicina clinica si modifica in modo continuo: il livello molecolare di interpretazione dei processi fisiopatologici delle malattie, l'introduzione di nuove tecnologie diagnostiche e dei farmaci biologici, quale primo passo verso le terapie "personalizzate", assieme alla medicina rigenerativa rappresentano i cambiamenti epocali più significativi che stiamo vivendo e che sostanzialmente cambiano la cultura e il lavoro del medico. Ne deriva che anche lo studio della dermatologia, una disciplina che fa segnare continui progressi di portata assai significativa correlati al tumultuoso evolvere delle scienze di base, debba modellarsi sulle nuove conoscenze, a partire ovviamente dagli studi universitari. Il "Manuale di dermatologia medica e chirurgica" giunge alla sesta edizione profondamente aggiornato e rinnovato nei contenuti per offrire uno strumento sempre più completo e adeguato alle esigenze di conoscenza e formazione.
