This book contains the essential information required by physicians and bench scientists to understand the definition of a given autoimmune disease and its diagnostic criteria and treatment. Autoimmune diseases are a family of more than one hundred chronic, and often disabling, illnesses that develop when underlying defects in the immune system lead the body to attack its own organs, tissues, and cells. In Autoimmune Disease Diagnosis: Systemic and Organ-specific Diseases, the editors have gathered a critical review by renowned experts of more than 120 autoimmune diseases. A contemporary overview of these conditions with special emphasis on diagnosis is presented.
