Synopsis The Urinary Sediment by : Giovanni B. Fogazzi

From review from the Lancet of the first edition in comparison with a competing title: 'Every nephrologist knows and teaches that urine microscopy is an important diagnostic aid. What has been urgently needed is a colour guide to the subject.....I preferred the pictures in the European book. They were of high quality, not repetitive and with clear legends...if I wanted to teach myself.. then the European book was well ahead. The latter is also accompanied by an elegant introductory essay by JS Cameron on the history of urine analysis. Every renal unit needs at least one of these books.' The Lancet' These few comments should not obscure the significant contribution of The Urinary Sediment to the diagnostic armamentarium of the nephrologist. Each renal unit should have a copy for daily clinical discussions...Finally this book should be included in the required reading list of courses in renal medicine.' Nephrology Dialysis TransplantationThis is the second edition of a full colour reference atlas published first to excellent reviews in 1994. Every renal unit needs to have a reference text of this kind and urine microscopy is an important diagnostic aid in nephrology. After the 'Historical Introduction' by J Stewart Cameron, chapter 1 descibes the methods used to prepare and analyse the urine samples. Chapter 2, which is the most important section of the book, describes with the help of 249 illustrations (over 200 in full colour) the elements of the urinary sediment. Chapter 3 deals with the urinary sediment of the normal subject, while chapter 4 deals with the urinary changes which are observed in the main diseases of the kidney and urinary tract. Chapter 5 describes the changes of the urinary sediment caused by drugs. Chapter 6 is about the interpretation of the urinary findings shown in the previous chapters. Chapter 7 covers the new systems to analyse the urinary sediments. An appendix shows how to adjust the microscope to analyse the urine specimens. The primary audience is practising nephrologists and nephrologists in training, and also those in internal medicine rotating through the renal unit who perform routinely the analysis of the urinary sediment. Clinical pathologists would also find this an attractive and useful book. The illustrations are outstanding and additional clinical information has been added in this new edition.

Synopsis The urinary sediment: An integrated view by : Giovanni Battista Fogazzi

This third edition appears ten years after the previous one, a fact which explains the many changes this book contains. All part of the book have been explained and updated. More than 60 new images have been added and more than 110 images of the previous edition have been replaced. Room has been given to particles which were not described previously such as macrophages, decoy cells, unusual crystals and crystals due to drugs. Another distinguishing feature of this edition is the presentation of original urinal sediment data on various renal diseases. Finally, a new chapter has been added on quality control programs, which ore aimed at improving the overall quality of the urinary sediment examination.

Synopsis The Paris System for Reporting Urinary Cytology by : Dorothy L. Rosenthal

This book describes a novel and proven approach to cytologically classify urinary samples for the detection of bladder cancer and lesions of the upper urinary tract. The new method is based on the collective experience of knowledgeable cytopathologists who have tested the terminology within their own laboratories for reproducibility and predictability of neoplasms of the urinary tract. Accompanying the written criteria for each diagnostic category are meticulously photographed exemplars of the cellular features, with cogently annotated descriptions of the photographs. The book thereby performs as an atlas for microscopists involved in diagnostic cytopathology at all levels of their education. Included in the targeted readership are experienced pathologists, cytotechnologists, and students of both professional groups. The new terminology also considers the clinical aspects of patient management. Written by experts in the field who convened at the 18th International Congress of Cytology in Paris, The Paris System for Reporting Urinary Cytology presents a global standard for reporting and a new philosophic approach that maximizes the strengths of detecting the potentially lethal high grade lesions by urinary cytology, and recognizes without apology the inability to reliably detect the low grade lesions in urinary cytology. The Concept has been endorsed by the American Society Of Cytopathology, and the International Academy of Cytology.

Synopsis Koss's Cytology of the Urinary Tract with Histopathologic Correlations by : Leopold G. Koss, MD, FCRP

This new volume fills the gap in the literature as it will guide urologists and pathologists in the proper utilization of a variety of laboratory methods that are currently available to determine the presence, persistence or progression of tumors of the lower urinary tract. The volume emphasizes cytology of the urinary tract which is preferred over other methods (i.e. biochemical, immunological and cytogenetic) for its accuracy, especially for the important high grade tumors. This volume will appeal to urologists as well as pathologists, cytopathologists and related professions. The illustrations, nearly all in color, stress the key points of the text and enhance basic understanding of urothelial and other tumors of the urinary tract.

Synopsis Urinary Cytology by : Peter Rathert

Excellent illustrations and the latest technology from the clinic, practice and laboratory are compiled for both the practicing urologist and the researching cytopathologist in the book "Urinary Cytology." The completely revised and up-dated text in the new second edition reflects the first common effort of urologists, pathologists and cytopathologists to find a unified concept: from conventional cytology to electron microscopy toflow cytometry. The authors' main emphasis is on conveying practical techniques for the collection, concentration, fixation, staining and analysis of cellular material. They clearly discuss the circumstances under which new techniques are advisable and the relevance of these techniques when difficult questions of detail arise. At the same time, basic scientific principles arepresented in comprehensible form. The atlas section gives examples of urologic cytology, compares pathological with normal results, discusses the problems in differential diagnosis and points the way to solutions.
