Basic Histopathology

The second edition of this well-received book provides detailed information on the basic and advanced laboratory techniques in histopathology and cytology. It offers clear guidance on the principles and techniques of routine and special laboratory techniques. It also covers advanced laboratory techniques such as immunocytochemistry, flow cytometry, liquid-based cytology, polymerase chain reactions, tissue microarray, molecular technology, etc. The book's second edition covers several important recent topics with many new chapters, such as liquid biopsy, artificial neural network, digital pathology, and next-generation sequencing. Each chapter elucidates basic principle, practical methods, troubleshooting, and clinical applications of the technique. It includes multiple colored line drawings, microphotographs, and tables to illustrate each technique. The book is a helpful guide to the post-graduate students and fellows in pathology, practicing pathologists, as well as laboratory technicians, and research students.

L’évolution continue des connaissances en anatomie pathologique et la place désormais bien établie de cette spécialité dans le diagnostic et le traitement de nombreuses affections, en particulier en cancérologie et en médecine interne, rendent ce volume indispensable à l'apprentissage et à l'exercice de la médecine. C'est en effet sur une démarche "anatomo-radio-clinique" que repose désormais largement la pratique médicale. Il suffit pour s'en convaincre de rappeler l'importance de l'anatomie pathologique dans les classifications internationales des tumeurs (système TNM) et dans le traitement de tumeurs récemment individualisées, dont l'analyse de la morphologie a permis des avancées thérapeutiques majeures. Conçu comme un atlas, cet ouvrage parfaitement à jour illustre les problèmes diagnostiques rencontrés par les médecins dans leur pratique quotidienne et s'agrémente de nombreux outils pédagogiques tels qu'une revue des connaissances en début de chapitre, des tableaux récapitulatifs, des schémas et des résumés de révision. Il témoigne de l’importance grandissante de l'anatomie pathologique, au carrefour des sciences fondamentales – comme la biologie moléculaire et la cytogénétique – et de la clinique.

A full color text/atlas of histopathology containing a superb collection of photomicrographs. The book is in two parts; the first covers the basic pathological processes and the second, system-based pathology. Each chapter has a short introductory text and each illustration has an accompanying caption, making this a clear and concise book.

This text covers basic pathological processes and the common diseases encountered in systems pathology. This new edition includes updated chapters on amyloid, disorders of the lymphoreticular, male genital and nervous systems.

This best-selling atlas contains over 900 images and illustrations to help you learn and review the microstructure of human tissues. The book starts with a section on general cell structure and replication. Basic tissue types are covered in the following section, and the third section presents the microstructures of each of the major body systems. The highest -quality color light micrographs and electron micrograph images are accompanied by concise text and captions which explain the appearance, function, and clinical significance of each image. The accompanying website lets you view all the images from the atlas with a "virtual microscope", allowing you to view the image at a variety of pre-set magnifications. Utilizes "virtual microscope" function on the website, allowing you to see images first in low-powered and then in high powered magnification. Incorporates new information on histology of bone marrow, male reproductive system, respiratory system, pancreas, blood, cartilage, muscle types, staining methods, and more. Uses Color coding at the side of each page to make it easier to access information quickly and efficiently. Includes access to www.studentconsult.com, an interactive community center with a wealth of additional resources!

Hundreds of high-quality images illustrate the essential features of pathology and make it easy to make definitive comparisons to your own lab samples, while concise captions enable you to quickly and easily understand key points. Wheater's Basic Pathology is an excellent companion resource for users of Wheater's Functional Histology, Wheater's Review of Histology, and Basic Pathology, or Robbins and Cotran Pathology Flash Cards. This title includes additional digital media when purchased in print format. For this digital book edition, media content is not included. Offers discussions of basic pathological processes as well as coverage of common diseases encountered in systems pathology for a complete review. Includes comprehensive updates, with relevant molecular pathology issues explained in the context of the clinical presentation, the treatment implications, and the underlying pathological processes Presents nearly 650 images of the highest quality that vividly and clearly illustrate the essential features of pathology and enable you to make definitive comparisons to your own lab views. Features concise text that distills basic and complex information into a coherent explanation to help you understand key points quickly and easily. Provides keys to the lettering in images at the bottom of each page, saving you time in reviewing figures. Serves as a companion text to Wheater’s Functional Histology, 5th Edition, offering a comparison of normal histology with the pathological changes in disease. Features a short review section at the end of each chapter covering the key point of the chapter in brief form for the perfect pairing of reference and review. Includes online access to Student Consult where you'll find the complete text and illustrations from the book, fully searchable • and additional USMLE-style questions for self assessment Provides additional colored text boxes with clinical-pathological correlations that explain the relevance of the pathological processes underlying common diseases and their complications. FOR FACULTY Features online access to Evolve Resources including a high-resolution image bank with all the illustrations, figures and tables from the book, and a test bank.
