IOACHIM'S LYMPH NODE PATHOLOGY

Summary:

Lymph nodes are among the second most common biopsied organs due to their accessibility and their importance in staging tumours. Before now the classification and nomenclature of lymphomas has been difficult and controversial.

From it's first edition in 1982 to the present day this is the most widely used textbook in the field and now includes coverage of the latest classifications for lymphomas.

Its user friendly and practical format features tables, diagnostic checklists, and clear colour illustrations make it easy for clinicians to follow. This edition also includes newly described entities and nomenclatures as well as new classifications (not yet published elsewhere) and covers not just tumours but all lymph node lesions (benign and malignant)with each lesion being presented as a separate and independent entity.

Features:

• Comprehensive coverage addresses not only tumours but ALL lymph node lesions, both benign and malignant.
• Also includes info on diagnostic methods and their proper interpretation.
• Standardised outline format presents each lesion or disease as an independent entity with consistent subchapters for easy reference.
• Diagnostic checklists and lists of monoclonal antibodies speed diagnosis and improve accuracy.
• Abundant original illustrations (most in colour).

New to this edition:

• New WHO classification of lymphomas - not available in any other resource!
• Thoroughly updated content on fine needle aspiration and touch imprints correlating cytology with tissue sections.
• New full colour illustrations!
