Description
Written by histopathologists and technical staff with a range of experience, this book outlines the ways in which material can be handled to yield the maximum information. It should be of interest to technical staff in training and histopathologists. The text shows a more marked trend towards providing text essential for histology technologists. This edition has two new chapters, and the section on neuropathological techniques, which relies much more on immunocytochemistry and electron microscopy has been updated. The chapter on histometry has been developed by the inclusion of image analysis techniques. In the chapter on safety, the COSSH regulations are covered and the chapter on diagnostic immunocytochemistry shows how this subject has advanced and how relevant it has become to the confirmation of pathological diagnosis.
