This is the new edition of what has become the standard technical reference book in most departments of histopathology.This book gives the reader a thorough grounding in all aspects of histological techniques, including an understanding of basic methods. This is essential knowledge for laboratory staff.Since the first edition in 1977, histotechnology has become an increasingly complex branch of laboratory medicine. Special techniques have continued to develop, particularly in the analysis of difficult cases for diagnosis. This book encompasses these advances, providing a balance between the new and the traditional techniques. In addition, colour illustrations have been re-introduced (they were absent from the third edition). Features: * New edition of a well-established and widely-used text * Contains information vital for anyone working in a pathology laboratory * Updated -- covers recent developments * This edition contains colour illustrations
