Atlas of Soft Tissue and Bone Pathology. With Histologic, Cytologic and Radiologic Correlations

Description

This is an abundantly illustrated resource for diagnosis of bone and soft tissue lesions-a particular challenge due to their rarity and complexity. In addition to carefully selected histologic photographs, this unique atlas enhances standard visual information with illustrations of imaging findings, cytology, and molecular and cytogenetic information. This vivid pictorial survey is arranged in a pattern-oriented approach based on the actual working method used in daily practice.

The authors are expert educators in surgical and cytopathology and experienced diagnosticians in the complexities of soft tissue and bone pathology. This richly illustrated and concise reference will be a practical and indispensible tool for general pathologists and pathologists in training, who are required to diagnose bone and soft tissue pathologies. It is also an excellent resource for physicians seeking a quick survey of sarcoma.

Key Features:

• Offers a practical, pattern-oriented diagnostic approach that mirrors the working method used in daily practice
• Augments histologic photographs with illustrations of imaging findings, cytology, and molecular and cytogenetic information
• Authored by recognized expert diagnosticians and teachers in the field
