This manual provides information on codes used for reporting diagnoses of mental disorders. After a chapter on the use of the manual and an overview of the classification, there are sections that provide more detail on each type:

• Multiaxial assessment
• Disorders usually first diagnosed in infancy, childhood, or adolescence
  
• Delirium, dementia, and amnestic and other cognitive disorders
  
• Mental disorders due to a general medical condition
  
• Substance-related disorders
  
• Schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders
  
• Mood disorders
  
• Anxiety disorders
  
• Somatoform disorders
  
• Factitious disorders
  
• Dissociative disorders
  
• Sexual and gender identity disorders
• Eating disorders
  
• Sleep disorders
  
• Impulse-control disorders not elsewhere classified
  
• Adjustment disorders
  
• Personality disorders
  
• Other conditions that may be a focus of clinical attention
  
• Additional codes

In addition, there are appendices. Since this resource is really geared towards medical professionals and medical coders, appendices most likely to be useful for librarians or the general public are: the glossary of technical terms, highlights of changes in this revision, information on cultural syndromes, and possibly the comparison with ICD-9-CM and ICD-10 codes. If you're an employee of the State of Alaska and need online access to the DSM-IV-TR or ICD-10, please ask a librarian for assistance.
