Main description:

This Atlas is an essential guide to both the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of neoplastic hematopathologies, based on specific parameters. It will be an invaluable reference for all practicing hematologists, oncologists and pathologists.

Atlas of Differential Diagnosis in Neoplastic Hematopathology, Second Edition discusses:

• basic clinical data


• prognostic data


• morphologic data


• phenotypic data

Including over 600 color illustrations, Atlas of Differential Diagnosis in Neoplastic Hematopathology, Second Edition is extensively referenced and updated. Covering neoplastic hematopathology, with an emphasis on the differential diagnosis, numerous tables summarize the phenotypic profiles of the most common hematologic tumors, for the practicing hematologist, oncologist and pathologist.

NEW TO THE SECOND EDITION:

• A multimethodologic approach to neoplastic hematopathology


• New and significantly updated sections on differential diagnosis and morphology, chromosomal and genetic changes, and localization
