Clinical Hematology Atlas - Elsevier eBook on VitalSource, 4th Edition
Elsevier eBook on VitalSource
An excellent companion to Rodak's Hematology: Clinical Principles & Applications, this atlas is ideal for helping students learn to accurately identify cells at the microscope. It offers complete coverage of the basics of hematologic morphology, including examination of the peripheral blood smear, basic maturation of the blood cell lines, and discussions of a variety of clinical disorders. Over 400 photomicrographs, schematic diagrams, and electron micrographs visually clarify hematology from normal cell maturation to the development of various pathologies.
