The Diabetes Dialogue is a series of quarterly CME-certified newsletters designed to provide healthcare professionals with advice on the early identification and management of diabetic microvascular complications (DMC). Each issue of Diabetes Dialogue will contain a variety of clinically useful tools, including case studies, literature summaries, and answers to clinical questions from a panel of experts. We hope you take advantage of this and forthcoming issues as opportunities to gain useful clinical insight into the screening, diagnosis, and treatment of DMC.
