Histology is a subspecialty of pathology involving the study of cells and tissues.
This book is a comprehensive guide to histological techniques for clinicians and trainees.
Divided into 31 sections, each chapter explains a different technique, from basic tissue fixation, staining and bone decalcification, to enzyme histochemistry, cytopathology, immunofluorescent techniques and much more.
The third edition has been fully revised and updated to provide clinicians with the lates advances in the field.
Many new topics have been added to this edition including molecular genetics, genetic alteration in tumours, digital pathology, and laboratory waste disposal.
This useful manual is further enhanced by clinical images, illustrations, charts and tables.
The previous edition (9789389188479) published in 2019.
