Theranostic and Genomic Applications
David J. Dabbs
editore: Elsevier - Health Sciences Division
pagine: 944
User-friendly and concise, the new edition of this popular reference is your #1 guide for the appropriate use of immunohistochemical stains. Dr. David J. Dabbs and leading experts in the field use a consistent, organ system approach to cover all aspects of the field, with an emphasis on the role of genomics in diagnosis and theranostic applications that will better inform treatment options. Each well-written and well-researched chapter is enhanced with diagnostic algorithms, charts, tables, and superb, full-color histologic images, making this text a practical daily resource for all surgical pathologists. Features a systematic approach to the diagnostic entities of each organ system, including detailed differential diagnoses, diagnostic algorithms, and immunohistograms that depict immunostaining patterns of tumors. Covers many more antigens than other texts, and discusses antibody specifications with tables that convey information on uses, clones, vendors, sources, antibody titers, and types of antigen retrieval. Discusses diagnostic pitfalls through immunohistologic differential diagnosis wherever appropriate so you can provide the most accurate diagnoses. Contains new material on non-lymphoid malignancies, Hodgkin/non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and an expanded chapter on digital imaging and quantitative immunohistochemistry. Provides new grading schemes for several organs, along with new antibodies to cover more genomic immunohistochemistry applications. Offers more emphasis in the breast section of "eyes on" tissue for molecular/IHC prognostics compared to the current trend of gene-expression profiling of breast cancer. Expert ConsultT eBook version included with purchase. This enhanced eBook experience allows you to search all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of devices.
Manuale di diagnostica di laboratorio

editore: Minerva Medica
pagine: 264
La diagnostica di laboratorio è stata caratterizzata negli ultimi decenni da una rapida evoluzione delle tecniche analitiche e dall'ampia disponibilità di apparecchiature automatizzate che consentono al clinico di ricevere dati di laboratorio con sempre maggiore tempestività e attendibilità. Questo volume tratta gli argomenti fondamentali di biochimica, microbiologia e patologia clinica allo scopo di fornire allo studente un approccio pratico alla comprensione dei meccanismi fisiopatologici e all'utilizzo delle indagini di laboratorio nel percorso diagnostico. Vengono introdotti i concetti generali della richiesta delle indagini di laboratorio e della loro utilizzazione e sono trattati i fondamenti e le applicazioni delle moderne tecniche di diagnostica molecolare. Al fondo di ogni capitolo sono state inserite delle domande di autovalutazione allo scopo di fornire utili indicazioni sul grado di preparazione raggiunto per lo svolgimento dell'esame. Il testo viene incontro alle esigenze degli studenti che desiderano consolidare le nozioni apprese durante le lezioni, approfondire gli argomenti trattati dal docente e preparasi all'esame. L'organizzazione del testo consente inoltre di estendere e personalizzare lo studio a seconda dei propri interessi e della propria curiosità scientifica.
Case-Based Pathology and Laboratory Medicine
Frederick C. Skvara, Jana Raskovae altri
editore: Blackwell Publishing Ltd
pagine: 184
"Case-Based Pathology and Laboratory Medicine" is a brand new text that uses over 20 real patient cases to teach students and junior doctors to recognise and understand significant diseases and their complications from a pathology perspective. Each case presents relevant clinical data, in full colour throughout, and guides you through to a diagnosis via multiple-choice questions. The MCQs are flagged throughout as Basic, Intermediate and Advanced. Detailed answers are provided with a final diagnosis and synopsis to each presented case. Further information is given to help interpret results and tables and many lab tips are included. "Case-Based Pathology and Laboratory Medicine" is a perfect test-yourself revision resource for medical students and junior doctors. It is excellent for clinical attachments as well as exam revision and preparation for OSCEs. Pre-publication review: 'The book is really good. It makes pathology easier and more fun to study' - 4th year student, Manchester.

Principles of Molecular Pathology
Anthony A. Killeen
editore: Humana Press Inc.
pagine: 333
Anthony Killeen, MD, PhD, offers a comprehensive yet concise introduction to molecular pathology that encompasses both applied and theoretical knowledge. Writing in a very readable style, the author reviews the basic concepts of human molecular biology, explains the principles of the most commonly used analytical methods, and discusses the molecular principles that underlie both inherited diseases and acquired genetic abnormalities that lead to cancer. Using common viral infections as examples, the book applies these molecular methods to the detection of microbial pathogens. The growing importance of pharmacogenetics and identity testing in the clinical laboratory is also highlighted.
