Kurzbeschreibung
Lymphoproliferative diseases refer to several conditions in which lymphocytes are produced in excessive quantities, which typically occur in patients with compromised immune systems. This highly illustrated, diagnostic guidebook provides a single comprehensive source of essential information for non-specialists, enabling them to diagnose lymph node and related pathologies with confidence. The text is designed to be short and succinct and the book covers reactive as well as malignant conditions. The new edition of this essential bench atlas takes the reader through the diagnostic pathology of lymph nodes and related hematologic diseases.
This highly illustrated, diagnostic guidebook provides a single comprehensive source of essential information to enable non-specialists to diagnose lymph node and related diseases with confidence. The text is didactic and practical, covering reactive as well as malignant conditions. Diagnosis of Lymphoproliferative Diseases approaches the disorders based on the WHO classification and is edited by members of the WHO panel for the classification of lymphomas.
This second edition contains over 1000 high quality, digitised colour images and tables of essential criteria for each diagnosis. New features include:
* Full discussion of immunostaining, the core of modern diagnosis
* Variant forms and technical issues
This authoritative guide is an essential reference for haematologists, haematopathologists, general pathologists, diagnostic histopathologists and oncologists.
