AB Dermatology  is  a  specialty  in  which  visual  inspection  allows  for  rapid  diagnosis.  A  brief  physical  examination  prior  to  a  lengthy  history  is  valuable  because  some  of  the  classic  skin  diseases  with  obvious  morphologies  allow  a  “doorway  diagnosis”  to  be  established.  The  tools  the  physician  needs  are  readily  available:  magnifying  glass,  glass  slide  (for  diascopy  to  determine  if  a  lesion  is  blanchable),  adequate  lighting,  a  flashlight,  alcohol  pad  to  remove  scale  or  makeup,  scalpel,  and  at  times  a  Wood  lamp.  Universal  precautions  should  always  be  used.
