Diagnostic Pathology

"Diagnostic Pathology: Infectious Diseases presents a comprehensive look at infectious diseases, their anatomic manifestations, and how to insure a complete and accurate sign out at the microscope. With an almost entirely new chapter landscape and thousands of images, this is the key companion for the resident in training and the general surgical pathologist. Diagnostic Pathology: Infectious Diseases is divided into sections by organism type (Virus, Bacteria, Fungi, and Parasite) and further divided by those that can be definitively diagnosed on histological appearance and those that need ancillary confirmation by a variety of techniques. Species-specific pathologies, when appropriate, are discussed for finding "zebra" cases. A comprehensive approach to how to sign out cases is detailed in each chapter. As with all Amirsys references, all of the information is distilled into succinct, bulleted text, with a Key Facts box with quick go-to information. Diagnostic Pathology: Infectious Diseases will provide all of the essential information for all practicing surgical pathologists and trainees in anatomic pathology."--Provided by publisher.
