| Summary: | "The practice of pathology has witnessed a paradigm shift in the past 10 years. We are being asked to do more and more with less and less tissue. No longer is a body cavity being opened to obtain diagnostic tissue. With modern imaging technologies, the interventional radiologists, gastroenterologists, pulmonologists and surgeons now provide fine needle aspiration cytology and miniscule biopsies and for diagnosis and molecular testing. This comprehensive cytopathology textbook is written in the easy-to-access format popularized by the Amirsys surgical pathology, histology and radiology textbooks. It is written with the busy cytopathology professional in mind. The "key facts" provide quick criteria needed for diagnosis or adequacy evaluation at the time of procedure, whereas the rest of the chapter is written in a consistent, succinct, synoptic format, which is an easy read and full of information. The book covers all aspects of cytology, from gyn to non-gyn exfoliative and fine-needle aspiration, including neuropathology squash preparations, ophthalmic cytopathology, quality improvement, instrumentation, immunohistochemistry, and molecular testing as they apply to cytology, cell blocks and miniscule biopsy specimens."-- |
