Description
This book will be the most complete and authoritative benchside reference text on the pathologic interpretation and diagnosis of blood
and bone marrow disease. The book will cover all of the pathologic conditions that are likely to be encountered in daily practice. The
text incorporate the latest knowledge on the molecular basis of inherited red cell and coagulation disorders. The organizational structure
of each chapter will follow a consistent format: incidence/epidemiology, pathogenesis, brief clinical presentation, histologic and cytologic
appearance, testing techniques, differential diagnosis and a brief section on clinical behavior and outcome.
Audience
Pathologists, Hematologists, Oncologists, Health Science Libraries
