Diagnostic Cytopathology

* 2011 BMA Book Awards - Highly Commended in Pathology *

The new edition of Diagnostic Cytopathology provides the practicing and trainee cytopathologist with a comprehensive guide to the diagnostic applications of exfoliative and aspiration cytology. The book covers normal and abnormal cytological findings encountered in all body sites where cytological applications are used. Appropriate histopathological, immunohistochemical and molecular correlations, together with a consideration of the possible differential diagnoses, accompany the cytological findings. The reader can see a full range of normal and abnormal findings with almost 2,000 full-colour images. The book is heavily referenced to ensure that it will serve as a practical resource for daily reference in the laboratory. A uniformity of basic chapter structure will help readers to quickly find the diagnostic answers they seek.

''This is an enjoyable and instructive textbook with many representative color pictures of the best quality. The book covers many fields and aspects of diagnostic cytolopathology with 16 sections and 34 chapters with total 930 pages I believe this is one of the most extensively- and intensively-covering monographs on cytopathology. Each chapter is composed of introduction, cytologic techniques, ancillary techniques, normal components, tumors, and role of cytology in patient management. The description is concise and informative. Illustrations, tables and boxes are of excellent quality and self explanatory. ''
