Atlas of Medical Mycology bridges the knowledge gap between the in-depth textbooks on medical mycology and the laboratory. It showcases photographs of culture morphology and photomicrographs of both common and uncommon fungi isolated at the Mycology Laboratory Division, RG Kar Medical College, Kolkata.

The figures are accompanied by pertinent descriptions to aid the untrained eye to appreciate and identify the relevant features. It also includes clinical photographs, and brief case descriptions of the cases from which the fungi were isolated, to help the students develop their clinical acumen.

Though the book is aimed at postgraduate students, it will also be helpful to practising microbiologists, dermatologists and pathologists. The book also highlights the achievements possible in quality laboratory diagnostics even in a resource-limited setting.
