Book excerpt: The approach described in this book is different from that in most student texts, and has been very successful in practice, starting almost from scratch, but omitting many of the ‘basics’ such as the details of hematopoiesis, laboratory technology, and so on, which are hardly relevant to the practising clinician and student in the wards, and are primarily of interest to the hematologist and sometimes to the clinical specialist. Considerable emphasis is given to the clinical history and examination, and the interpretation of the clinical patterns thus exposed. Hopefully it will overcome many of the traditional problems experienced in practical diagnostic haematology.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this text is to present a complete hematology course for Clinical Laboratory Science (CLS) students, as well as to provide a resource for clinical laboratory practitioners, medical students, and residents. It presents an in-depth study of cell counting, morphologic differentiation and evaluation, and related areas, such as flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, and cytogenetics. A chapter on specific age groups covers the unique aspects of hematology in the pediatric and geriatric populations. A section on the etiology and treatment of leukocyte neoplasms has been included to provide some insight into the special considerations of oncologic disorders. Chapters begin with an outline and learning objectives, and color figures are presented as close to the citation as possible to facilitate understanding of the discussion. Most chapters end with a summary, and in many cases, review questions or case studies are included to assess or reinforce understanding of the material.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combining essential hematology content with the diagnostic features of an atlas, Veterinary Hematology: A Diagnostic Guide and Color Atlas delivers all the information you need to accurately assess and diagnose the blood diseases of common domestic animals — including dogs, cats, horses, cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, and llamas. This all-in-one resource utilizes a clinically-oriented and user-friendly approach to guide you through the processes of selecting relevant diagnostic tests, collecting and preparing samples, interpreting sample results, and determining their clinical significance. High-resolution photomicrographs, full-color illustrations, and excellent schematic drawings, tables, and quick-reference algorithms help you clearly visualize these concepts and procedures. Two books in one gives you the information of a user-friendly, clinical textbook and the diagnostic features of a color atlas in a single reference. Practical, clinically-relevant text is comprehensive and yet concise in its delivery of vital information such as: Principles and procedures that are employed in recognizing normal, abnormal, and artifactual features of blood and bone marrow samples and developing accurate diagnoses Common cytochemical stains and summary charts for interpretation Sample collection, staining procedures, and diagnostic techniques Differentiating features of malignant and benign hematologic disorders Miscellaneous cells and blood parasites and their significance in the evaluation of blood smears Hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic neoplasms High- resolution photomicrographs and excellent schematic drawings, tables, boxes and quick-reference algorithms aid your understanding of basic clinical concepts and differential diagnostic considerations. Over 800 full-color illustrations help you clearly visualize the concepts and clinical features of the blood and bone marrow — from normal cell maturation to the development of various pathologies.

Book excerpt: Diagnostic hematology is a problem-solving process involving the gathering and analysis of the relevant findings in each case. Based on the combination of clinical and laboratory data, an experienced diagnostician can formulate the overall 'pattern' of a case. The 'pattern approach' to differential diagnosis is an integral component of the diagnostic reasoning of many expert hematologists. In this unique textbook the authors present a logical and systematic approach to diagnosis, based on the patterns derived from peripheral blood analysis, flow cytometry immunophenotyping studies and bone marrow examination. Unlike standard textbooks which are organized by specific diseases and thereby assume the reader has reached a diagnosis, this text presents the diagnostic problem as it is investigated in practice. The patterns formed by different blood and bone marrow disorders are described in detail and illustrated with color photomicrographs, or flow cytometry graphics. The reader is taken through the process of reaching the differential diagnosis. Advice is given on the proper approach to diagnostic work-up and how to avoid common diagnostic pitfalls. The companion CD-ROM, with full instructions given in the appendix, offers the reader the chance to assess real test results, and see the patterns which lead to the final interpretation in over 200 cases. As a result the reader will develop the skill of pattern recognition and be able to incorporate this diagnostic approach in practice. This is an essential text for physicians practicing hematology and hematopathology, especially those interpreting peripheral blood, flow cytometry and bone marrow specimens; also for technologists and laboratory staff responsible for the screening of full blood counts, the initial review of blood/bone marrow films or immunophenotyping data.

Book excerpt: Haematology Diagnostic haematology requires the assessment of clinical and laboratory data together with a careful morphological assessment of cells in blood, bone marrow and tissue ­fluids. Subsequent investigations including flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, cytogenetics and molecular studies are guided by the original morphological findings. These targeted investigations help generate a prompt unifying diagnosis. Haematology: From the Image to the Diagnosis presents a series of cases illustrating how skills in morphology can guide the investigative process. In this book, the authors capture a series of images to illustrate key features to recognize when undertaking a morphological review and show how they can be integrated with supplementary information to reach a final diagnosis. Using a novel format of visual case studies, this text mimics ‘real life’ for the practising diagnostic haematologist – using brief clinical details and initial microscopic morphological triage to formulate a differential diagnosis and a plan for efficient and economical confirmatory investigation to deduce the correct final diagnosis. The carefully selected, high-quality photomicrographs and the clear, succinct descriptions of key features, investigations and results will help haematologists, clinical scientists, haematology trainees and haematopathologists to make accurate diagnoses in their day-to-day work. Covering a wide range of topics, and including paediatric as well as adult cases, Haematology: From the Image to the Diagnosis is a succinct visual guide which will be welcomed by consultants, trainees and scientists alike.

It serves as a very handy and useful resource for busy laboratorians, who routinely encounter the situations detailed therein. It is also helpful for students, who need to learn how to recognize and avoid such situations, by providing expert guidance and examples of ways to keep these types of errors from potentially causing harm to patients."--Cynthia S. Johns, Laboratory Corporation of America, Lab Medicine The Diagnostic Standards of Care series presents common errors associated with diagnoses in clinical pathology, using case examples to illustrate effective analysis based on current evidence and standards. Each volume demonstrates the use of quality assurance and the role of the pathologist in ensuring quality and patient safety. Hematology and Immunology focuses on core issues in achieving quality in all areas of hematopathology and immunology, with an emphasis on identifying established, evidence-based standards. It addresses potential problems and sources of error in testing procedures, how to anticipate and avoid such problems, and how to manage them if they occur. Discussions are problem-based and address common situations and issues faced by clinical pathologists or members of a laboratory team. Using actual case studies, the book provides plentiful examples of errors, along with discussions on how to deal with them effectively. Hematology and Immunology Features Key issues in achieving quality in all areas of hematology and immunology Numerous case examples offering real-world illustrations of how problems occur and how to avoid them An emphasis on identifying established, evidence-based standards in hematology and immunology
