This expert volume in the Diagnostic Pathology series is an excellent point-of-care resource for practitioners at all levels of experience and training. Covering all aspects of cytology, including gynecologic, nongynecologic exfoliative, fine-needle aspiration, and imaging, this content set incorporates the most recent clinical, pathologic, and molecular knowledge in the field to provide a comprehensive overview of all key issues relevant to today’s practice. Succinctly written, richly illustrated, and easy to use, Diagnostic Pathology: Cytopathology, fourth edition, is an essential text for accurate, complete pathology reports-ideal as a day-to-day reference or as a reliable training resource.
- Delivers the most current clinical, pathologic, histologic, cytologic, and molecular specifics to help general pathologists and cytopathologists quickly resolve questions about minute specimens-including in real time while a patient undergoes a procedure
- Offers updated discussions of companion diagnostics on how best to interpret immunostains, and results of molecular testing in the context of cytology and small biopsy material
- Covers recent advancements in cervical cancer screening as well as new advancements in digital cytopathology and artificial intelligence pertaining to cytopathology specimens
- Reviews the latest technologic advances in endoscopy and bronchoscopy and the implications for the practice of cytopathology
- Features more than 2,000 high-quality print images (with 1,600 additional images in the complimentary eBook), including gross pathology images and clinical photographs, radiologic images, histologic images, and full-color medical illustrations-all carefully annotated to help you quickly recognize established entities
