Description
Written by a young, innovative author group, this exciting new book gives you the clinically relevant aspects of hematology in an innovative,
unique format. The book is structured to comprehensively cover the complete scope of hematology, but allows fast access to key information
you need in everyday practice. A section on consultative hematology includes chapters on special populations (pregnancy, pediatrics,
geriatrics), infections of marrow and blood, and hematologic problems of medical practice and surgery. You'll also find a section on
tools for the hematologist, covering clinical aspects of transfusion, transplantation, and the latest innovative laboratory procedures.
