"Clinical Outline of Oral Pathology, Third Edition" integrates the precepts of basic oral pathology, oral radiology and oral medicine. It assists in constructing a differential diagnosis, arriving at a definitive diagnosis and providing appropriate management and treatment. Diseases of the oral cavity have been categorised according to presenting signs and symptoms. Chapters include lesions associated with AIDS or HIV seropositivity for up-to-the-minute coverage. The primary objective of this text is the development of an approach to the patient, providing the student with a protocol for developing a differential diagnosis, evaluating patient responses and clinical signs so as to limit the differential and ultimately securing a definitive diagnosis so that a treatment plan can be generated.
