About the Book
This book provides an outlined-based, all inclusive reference of anatomic pathology for pathologists-in-training and practicing pathologists. Hundred of tables and lists provide the pathologist with a concentrated reference on the diagnostic criteria and differential diagnosis required to ensure an accurate diagnosis. It is organised to allow for an easy reference for daily practice. The first part covers general anatomic pathology, including diagnostic molecular pathology, medical cytogenetics, human genetic disorders, microbiology for surgical pathologists, forensic pathology, and cytopathology. The second part if classified by organ systems, and covers important diagnostic features of common medical diseases and tumors. The pertinent clinical information, salient diagnostic features, relevant ancillary data (e.g., immunohistochemical profiles), main differential diagnoses for each disease and the most recent tumor staging information are presented in a consistently user-friendly format. Comprehensive, and packed with useful information, this book will serve as an essential reference in the pathologist lab and become a useful study guide for all pathologists in training.
