Description and Table of Contents
Description
Manual of Hematology is designed in outline form to provide a concise and clear overview of the subject of hematology. Both laboratory and clinical aspects of hematologic disorders are covered, but the primary emphasis is on the pathophysiology of hematologic disorders. The book is divided into 5 sections. Part 1 provides a concise review of the structure and function of the normal cell components of the hemic system as well as the major plasma components, such as iron, vitamin B12 and folate, that are of special interest in hematologic disease. Part 2 deals with the major disease groups and presents the important basic features of the disorders. Part 3 deals with hemostasis and coagulation. Part 4 covers immunohematology, with special attention to the blood group antigens, HLA antigens, use of blood components in therapy and transfusion reactions. The last section of the book consists of a series of diagnostic problems in which pertinent clinical and laboratory data are provided. These cases are selected to teach interpretation of laboratory data in a logical manner and should prove a valuable and interesting aspect of the book.
