By (author): Pranab Dey
Cytology refers to a branch of pathology that deals with making diagnoses of diseases and conditions through the examination of tissue samples from the body (MedicineNet.com).
This new edition has been fully revised to provide trainees and clinicians with the latest advances in the field of cytology.
Divided into four sections, each further sub-divided into multiple chapters, the book covers general cytology and the characteristics of cells and tissues, exfoliative cytology (an alternative to biopsy), laboratory techniques, and fine needle aspiration cytology.
The second edition includes two new chapters on round cell tumours and infections, as well as many new and updated images and figures.
Review questions conclude each chapter and new classifications of diseases and molecular genetics are also covered in depth.
