Description
This text is designed as a single pathologic resource for occupational lung diseases. The focus is placed on the diagnostic-pathologic features of occupational lung disease. Clinical and epidemiologic information is included to help the pathologist, respirologist or occupational disease physician understand what features should be present in a given case, what type of material is needed for diagnosis and special analysis, and how to determine if an occupational exposure is likely to have caused the disease in question.
