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.

A concise and thorough guide to clinical hematology and the fundamentals of hemostasis. The text's five parts provide a substantial introduction to the subject, followed by sections on the anemias, white blood cell disorders, hemostasis/thrombosis, and laboratory methods. This edition includes new chapters addressing the use of flow cytometry, the molecular diagnostic techniques in hematopathology, and an introduction to thrombosis and anticoagulant therapy. A feature of previous editions, a 260-page color-plate atlas, has been incorporated throughout the text. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Now in its second edition, Modern Hematology: Biology and Clinical Management reflects the major advances in the understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of blood disorders. It describes the latest clinical and scientific developments as well as details targeted and molecular therapies. The book brings together facts, concepts, and protocols important for the practice of hematology. In 23 chapters, all major blood diseases are covered, as well as rare diseases that are of scientific interest. As in the previous edition, each chapter is illustrated by tables, figures, and a selection of color plates.

Haematology provides a broad-ranging overview of the study of blood, from its physiology to the key pathophysiological states that can arise. It demonstrates throughout how the physiology underpins the key investigations carried out by a biomedical scientist, forging a clear link between science and practice.

Expertly edited and endorsed by the International Society for Laboratory Hematology, this is the newest international textbook on all aspects of laboratory hematology. Covering both traditional and cutting-edge hematology laboratory technology this book emphasizes international recommendations for testing practices. Illustrative case studies on how technology can be used in patient diagnosis are included. Laboratory Hematology Practice is an invaluable resource for all those working in the field.

**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.

NEW RELEASE!!! Hematology encompasses numerous diseases, and it is easy to get lost in the details of a reference text. This book focuses on seeing the overall clinical picture in a brief, clear manner. It offers a practical overview of the range of common hematologic disorders, with their diagnoses and treatments. The book is directed toward the medical, nursing, and PA student as well as the general practitioner, who would like a brief overview of the key and practical clinical aspects of Hematology, with understanding, rather than rote memorization.

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.

With the 13th edition, Wintrobe’s Clinical Hematology once again bridges the gap between the clinical practice of hematology and the basic foundations of science. Broken down into eight parts, this book provides readers with a comprehensive overview of: Laboratory Hematology, The Normal Hematologic System, Transfusion Medicine, Disorders of Red Cells, Hemostasis and Coagulation; Benign Disorders of Leukocytes, The Spleen and/or Immunoglobulins; Hematologic Malignancies, and Transplantation. Within these sections, there is a heavy focus on the morphological exam of the peripheral blood smear, bone marrow, lymph nodes, and other tissues. With the knowledge about gene therapy and immunotherapy expanding, new, up-to-date information about the process and application of these therapies is included. Likewise, the editors have completely revised material on stem cell transplantation in regards to both malignant and benign disorders, graft versus host disease, and the importance of long-term follow-up of transplantation survivors.
