Book Description

Publication Date: August 11, 2005 | ISBN-10: 0340809442 | ISBN-13: 978-0340809440 | Edition: 2

Tumor Diagnosis-Practical Approach and Pattern Analysis, 2nd edition has been thoroughly revised to provide the most up-to-date information for all pathologists, histopathologists working to diagnose tumors and tumor-like conditions. Following the success of its predecessor this is again the most valuable bench guide available. Every subject has been reconsidered, and refined; the original sections have been retained, the first giving the detail of the patterns to be found, and what they indicate. The second part is an A to Z of Tumors and Tumor-like Conditions (such as Pseudomalignancy), designed to be referred to during practical laboratory work. Radical improvements include: a detailed introduction to pattern analysis for residents, more then 1,600 completely new, high quality, full color images, providing the best possible examples for comparison; an expanded lymphoma section, and a revised format for even easier use during practical work.
