MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK
Main description:
This new volume of the Biopsy Interpretation Series is a practical, superbly illustrated guide to the technical and interpretive aspects of a frozen section. The focus is on use of the frozen section in intraoperative management of patients, particularly those with tumors. The authors give pathologists a thorough knowledge of the utility and limitations of a frozen section, the appropriate circumstances for doing one, the proper techniques, and the interpretation and reporting of results. The book features more than 300 full-color gross and microscopic images, with discussions of differential diagnosis.
A companion Website will provide 300 additional figures, plus a test bank that is ideal for board exam preparation.
