Main description:

This atlas presents not only the differential diagnosis but also the detailed morphologic, immunophenotypic, and especially genetic characteristics of the majority of hematolymphoid malignancies. An expert hematopathologist here provides a valuable resource to understand, use, or interpret one or more of these diagnostic modalities with confidence. This new edition has a compact format with up-to-date information - especially on genetic aspects - and will be an indispensable reference for all professionals in the specialty. *Provides an unrivalled visual resource for differential diagnosis in neoplastic hematopathology *Enables specialist and trainee oncologists and pathologists alike to understand, use, and interpret diagnostic modalities with confidence *Supplies quick access to information via tables, algorithms, and composite figures
