Dermatology is a particularly visual specialty. First part of presentation is focused on basic information about the structure and the function of the skin. We introduce the technical vocabulary of dermatologic description, also known as morphology. Accurately identifying morphology is an essential step in generating a differential diagnosis. Use of standard dermatologic terminology is also critical for effective clinical documentation, research, and communication with other health care providers.
