Book Description

Publication Date: January 15, 1996 | ISBN-10: 019521269X | ISBN-13: 978-0195212693 | Edition: 1

Based on the experience of the distinguished Amsterdam Lymphoma Panel, this book supplies the theoretical background for understanding and classifying lymphomas in a uniform way. Each chapter presents data on clinical findings, cytology, histology, immunocytochemistry, and, where pertinent, electron microscopy and molecular biology. The first chapter is devoted entirely to Hodgkin's disease, while subsequent chapters describe the Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas and form the bulk of the book. The authors cover topics such as lymphomagenesis, compartmentalization of T and B lymphocytes in lymph nodes, differential diagnosis and growth pattern of NHLs. A chapter deals exclusively with extranodal lymphomas, and the latest CD list of monoclonal antibodies is provided.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"The idea to combine in one book a description of the clinical, morphologic, and immunophenotypic features of malignant lymphomas with an atlas makes it an attractive choice for the novice in the field of hematopathology.... is a useful addition to libraries used by technologists and hematologists as well as by pathologists inexperienced in hematopathology."--Doody's Health Sciences Book Review Journal
