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, it 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 a one-stop reference 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 1,900 high-quality print images (with over 1,300 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
Contains updates throughout on the latest WHO/IARC/IAC terminology and WHO tumor classification changes as well as associated immunochemistry and molecular testing
Includes videos that enable better visualization of cytologic findings than static images as well as videos illustrating useful techniques in the cytopathology laboratory
Employs consistently templated chapters, bulleted content, key facts, a variety of tables, annotated images, pertinent references, and an extensive index for quick, expert reference at the point of care
Includes an eBook version that allows you access to everything in the book as well as video content and additional text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud; additional digital ancillary content may publish up to 6 weeks following the publication date
