Pathology of Infectious Diseases, by Gary W. Procop, MD, A Volume in the Foundations in Diagnostic Pathology Series, packs all of today's most essential information on infectious disease pathology into a compact, high-yield format! Well-organized and segmented by type of infectious organism, the book's pragmatic approach complemented by abundant full-color, high-quality photomicrographs and clinical photos, and at-a-glance tables makes it easy to access the information you need to quickly and accurately detect and identify pathogenic organisms. Chapters on immunohistochemical and molecular techniques as well as artifacts and pitfalls guide you to accurate detection and identifications.
  • • Molecular Pathology updated - there has been a significant increase in the use of molecular techniques such as next-generation sequencing (NGS) for pathogen detection and characterization. • The rise of novel pathogens, particularly highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic, has led to greater emphasis on surveillance and understanding the pathology of zoonotic diseases and their transmission pathways from animals to humans. • Pathologists are increasingly involved in monitoring Anti Microbial Resistance patterns. • The adoption of digital pathology and artificial intelligence in the analysis of histopathological specimens has improved diagnostic accuracy and efficiency, allowing for better identification of infectious agents.
  • • Quickly find the information you need thanks to a well-organized, user-friendly format with templated headings, detailed illustrations, at-a-glance tables, and segmentation by type of infectious organism―viral, bacterial, fungal, and parasitic. • Avoid common problems that can lead to an incorrect diagnosis. A special section on artifacts and pitfalls shows you what to look for. • Get superb visual guidance from an abundance of full-color, high-quality photomicrographs and clinical photos. • Employ the latest diagnostic advancements including immunohistochemical and molecular techniques.
