Cases in Microscopic Haematology is a collection of 80 case studies specifically designed to engage the learner in the laboratory process of data and blood film analysis, differential diagnosis and reporting. Each case provides the family history, analyser data and blood film/slide. Students use a template to complete the differential diagnosis and reporting. The process and template simulates the laboratory environment. Cases are organised according to difficulty and the worked cases are available in the back of the text. A suite of 20 Virtual slides will accompany the casebook. Cases in Microscopic Haematology is an excellent companion to Microscopic Haematology: a practical guide for the laboratory and will appeal to both the academic and professional market as either a pack or stand alone resource. This text will provide the opportunity for the student and laboratory technician to work through the case studies using a template similar to that used in a functioning laboratory.
