Rodak's Hematology

Texte du rabat

Make sure you are thoroughly prepared to work in a clinical laboratory. Rodak's Hematology: Clinical Principles and Applications, 7th Edition uses hundreds of full-color photomicrographs to help you understand the essentials of hematology and hemostasis. This new edition details the parts and functions of the cell; shows how to accurately identify cells; covers normal hematopoiesis through diseases of erythroid, myeloid, lymphoid, and megakaryocytic origins; and simplifies hemostasis and thrombosis concepts and disorders. Easy to follow and understand, this book also covers key topics, including working in the hematology and hemostasis laboratory; complementary testing areas such as flow cytometry, cytogenetics, and molecular diagnostics; and laboratory testing of blood cells and body fluid cells. Content throughout the text reflects the latest information on hematology and hemostasis. Hematology and hemostasis instruments are described, compared, and contrasted. More than 700 full-color illustrations and photomicrographs make it easier to visualize hematology concepts and show what you'll encounter in the laboratory. Instructions for laboratory procedures include detailed figures and sources of errors. Case studies in each chapter provide opportunities to apply hematology concepts to real-life scenarios. Hematology and hemostasis reference intervals are listed on the inside front and back covers for quick reference. Bulleted chapter summaries make it easy for you to review important points. Learning objectives begin each chapter and indicate what you should achieve, with review questions appearing at the end. Appendices provide easy access to a list of key formulas, abbreviations, and a detailed glossary to complement learning. NEW! Chapter on Patient Safety in Hematology and Hemostasis. NEW! Section on hematology and hemostasis in transgender populations. UPDATED! White blood cell chapters are current with the 2022 World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of Haematolymphoid Tumours. NEW! Changes in laboratory results associated with COVID-19 and other viral infections. NEW! Content and figures on plasma transport, cell communication, and signal transduction. NEW! Coverage of CRISPR technology for treatment of hemoglobinopathies and thalassemia. UPDATED! Major revision of the Automated Blood Cell Analysis chapter.
