Molecular Pathology of Lung Diseases

Emphasis on practical applications giving users a crucial, everyday resource Visual aids include an abundance of tables and diagrams Double-sided approach includes both clinical pathology and molecular science Detailed chapters cover the current molecular pathology of specific diseases This major work, complete with 150 illustrations, many of them in color, bridges the gap between clinical pulmonary pathology and basic molecular science. The editors have ensured that the work takes a highly visual approach that features an abundance of tables and diagrams. What readers get, in the end, is a comprehensive factual resource that is highly practical - a disease-based overview that will be a crucial aid in the everyday work of doctors in the number of fields that might come across lung disease. The first two sections of the volume provide the reader with general concepts, terminology and procedures in molecular pathology. The remainder of the volume is subdivided into neoplastic and non-neoplastic lung diseases with detailed chapters covering the current molecular pathology of specific diseases.
