Comprehensive survey of laboratory hematology, for both MLT and MLS students Clinical Laboratory Hematology balances theory and practical applications in a way that is engaging and useful to medical laboratory technician and science (MLT/MLS) students, at all levels. Detailed technical information combined with a running, realistic case study provide ample opportunities to analyze and synthesize information, answer questions and solve problems, and consider real-world applications. The 4th edition has been thoroughly updated with the latest advances in laboratory medicine and with updated content on iron metabolism and myelodysplastic syndromes. Clinical Laboratory Hematology , 4th Edition, is also available via Revel(tm) , an interactive learning environment that enables students to read, practice, and study in one continuous experience.

The second edition of Textbook of haematology discusses normal and abnormal haematopoiesis and haemostasis, including anemias and nonmalignant leucocyte disorders. The text emphasizes the relationship between haematologic disease and diagnostic laboratory testing.

Clinical Hematology: Theory & Procedures, Enhanced Sixth Edition is a competency-based text with built-in study tools to help you master the theory of clinical hematology and the procedures used to diagnose and treat disorders of the blood and bone marrow.

This reference presents the fundamentals of hematology, including erythrocytes, leukocytes, thrombocytes and coagulation, and briefly discusses disease states in a concise, yet comprehensive manner! This reader-friendly text features outlines, objectives, study questions, bibliographies, "Do It Now" application exercises, "special emphasis" statements, and "Fast Facts" summaries. Demonstrates the integration, collaboration, balance, and wholeness of quality clinical laboratory practices by introducing related areas and their procedures.

**Selected for Doody's Core Titles® 2024 in Laboratory Technology** Make sure you are thoroughly prepared to work in a clinical lab. Rodak's Hematology: Clinical Principles and Applications, 6th Edition uses hundreds of full-color photomicrographs to help you understand the essentials of hematology. This new edition shows how to accurately identify cells, simplifies hemostasis and thrombosis concepts, and covers normal hematopoiesis through diseases of erythroid, myeloid, lymphoid, and megakaryocytic origins. Easy to follow and understand, this book also covers key topics including: working in a hematology lab; complementary testing areas such as flow cytometry, cytogenetics, and molecular diagnostics; the parts and functions of the cell; and laboratory testing of blood cells and body fluid cells. - UPDATED nearly 700 full-color illustrations and photomicrographs make it easier for you to visualize hematology concepts and show what you'll encounter in the lab, with images appearing near their mentions in the text to minimize flipping pages back and forth. - UPDATED content throughout text reflects latest information on hematology. - Instructions for lab procedures include sources of possible errors along with comments. - Hematology instruments are described, compared, and contrasted. - Case studies in each chapter provide opportunities to apply hematology concepts to real-life scenarios. - Hematology/hemostasis reference ranges are listed on the inside front and back covers for quick reference. - A bulleted summary makes it easy for you to review the important points in every chapter. - Learning objectives begin each chapter and indicate what you should achieve, with review questions appearing at the end. - A glossary of key terms makes it easy to find and learn definitions. - NEW! Additional content on cell structure and receptors helps you learn to identify these organisms. - NEW! New chapter on Introduction to Hematology Malignancies provides and overview of diagnostic technology and techniques used in the lab.

Basic principles of hematology made memorable. Build a solid understanding of hematology in the context of practical laboratory practice and principles. Visual language, innovative case studies, role-playing troubleshooting cases, and laboratory protocols bring laboratory practice to life. Superbly organized, this reader-friendly text breaks a complex subject into easy-to-follow, manageable sections. Begin with the basic principles of hematology; discover red and white blood cell disorders; journey through hemostasis and disorders of coagulation; and then explore the procedures needed in the laboratory.

Ensure you are accurately identifying cells at the microscope with Clinical Hematology Atlas, 5th Edition. An excellent companion to Rodak's Hematology: Clinical Principles & Applications, this award-winning atlas offers complete coverage of the basics of hematologic morphology, including examination of the peripheral blood smear, basic maturation of the blood cell lines, and information on a variety of clinical disorders. Nearly 500 photomicrographs, schematic diagrams, and electron micrographs vividly illustrate hematology from normal cell maturation to the development of various pathologies so you can be sure you're making accurate conclusions in the lab. Schematic diagrams, photomicrographs, and electron micrographs are found in every chapter to visually enhance understanding of hematologic cellular morphology. Smaller trim size, concise text, and spiral binding make it easy to reference the atlas in the laboratory. Chapter on normal newborn peripheral blood morphology covers the normal cells found in neonatal blood. Chapter on body fluids illustrates the other fluids found in the body besides blood, using images from cytocentrifuged specimens. The most common cytochemical stains, along with a summary chart for interpretation, are featured in the leukemia chapters to help classify both malignant and benign leukoproliferative disorders. Chapter featuring morphologic changes after myeloid hematopoietic growth factors is included in the text. Morphologic abnormalities are covered in the chapters on erythrocytes and leukocytes, along with a description of each cell, in a schematic fashion. User resources on the Evolve companion site feature review questions and summary tables to further enhance their learning experience. NEW! Appendix with comparison tables of commonly confused cells includes lymphocytes versus neutrophilic myelocytes and monocytes versus reactive lymphoctyes to help users see the subtle differences between them. NEW! Glossary of hematologic terms at the end of the book provides a quick reference to easily look up definitions.

"This book is well written, concise, and easy to read and understand. 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
