Cytopathology provides a broad-ranging overview of the microscopic study of normal and abnormal cells, which embraces the latest imaging and visualization methods to study the structure of cells. The full colour presentation features over 400 figures. Written with the needs of the biomedical scientist centre-stage, it provides a firm grounding in normal cell structure, and the abnormal features that are indicative of different clinical conditions. It also explains how screening programmes can be used to detect changes early, giving an invaluable opportunity for treatment regimes to be implemented in a timely way. Crucially, it demonstrates throughout how an understanding of cellular physiology underpins the key investigations carried out by a biomedical scientist to forge a clear link between science and practice.The series is developed in partnership with and endorsed by the Institute of Biomedical Science. See ibms.org for more information. Online Resource CentreThe Online Resource Centre to accompany Cytopathology features:For registered adopters of the book:· Figures from the book, available to downloadFor students:· An interactive Digital Microscope, encouraging the exploration of tissue samples· Self-assessment modules to help you to check and reinforce understanding of the basic science introduced in each volume· Video podcasts including interviews with practicing biomedical scientists, and 'in the lab' footage showing biomedical science in practiceThe Fundamentals of Biomedical Science series is written to reflect the challenges of practicing biomedical science today. It draws together essential basic science with insights into laboratory practice to show how an understanding of the biology of disease is coupled to the analytical approaches that lead to diagnosis. Assuming only a minimum of prior knowledge, the series reviews the full range of disciplines to which a Biomedical Scientist may be exposed - from microbiology to cytopathology to transfusion science. Alongside volumes exploring specific biomedical themes and related laboratory diagnosis, an overarching Biomedical Science Practice volume gives a grounding in the professional and experimental skills with which any Biomedical Scientist must be equipped.

Product description

Review

The flow of information is excellent and the text is well-written... a good introductory text for undergraduates with an interest in cytology and for professionals in training. (Dr Lesley Walton, School of Pharmacy and Biomolecular Sciences, Liverpool John Moores University)

Lucid, logical coverage of material, set out thoughtfully and supported by good illustrations and learning features that make the text student-friendly... a very useful undergraduate cytopathology textbook. (Dr Nicholas Vardaxis, Endeavour College of Natural Health)

Clearly written, factual and concise. (Patricia Gadsdon PhD, FIBMS, School of Biological Sciences, Bangor University)

I would definitely recommend this book to anyone. (Jermin Simon, student, DeMontfort University)
