Students and clinicians find that reading the cases of real patients is an effective and enjoyable way to get experience applying the principles of differential diagnosis to a wide range of patients. Although the Casebook discussions often briefly mention treatment and follow-up, the focus is almost exclusively on diagnosis. The authors have selected the most interesting cases that cover a wide range of diagnoses. Following each of these cases one or more experts in that diagnosis will provide a discussion of how they would approach the treatment of such a patient.
