I understand the mental disorders section of the
International Classification of Diseases (ICD) is frequently used outside the US for diagnoses. Like the
DSM, the ICD is also periodically updated. I've read there's been some covergence between the two in diagnostic definition, but they still go significantly different ways in some areas.
Edit: BigCasper beat me to it - I just obsess a bit much over posts...
