Histopathology Specimens
Derek C. Allen and R. Iain Cameron (eds
Covering anatomical, clinical, pathological and laboratory aspects of surgical histopathology specimens, this book relates specimen dissection and its clinical context to relevant histopathology reports, and therefore a more comprehensive patient prognosis and management is possible. This book explains pathological and clinical terminology, including a glossary of clinical request form abbreviations. It offers a standardized step-wise approach to specimen handling illustrated by simple line diagrams and highlights essentials of the histopathology report, relating them to appropriate specimen dissection. This book will act as a reference tool for the medical trainee in histopathology and the biomedical scientist, and as a useful aid for the histopathology consultant.
