Part of the renowned "Systemic Pathology" series, this is a fully referenced discursive treatment of breast disease for the diagnostic histopathologist. It covers basic principles, to increase the reader's understanding of the diagnostic process, and covers the latest advances in the subject, both in terms of overall philosophy and new techniques. The text is well-referenced and comprehensive, with an emphasis on the relatively recent developments in organized screening programmes, and the multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis and treatment.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"This is an essential purchase . . . it will be of considerable value to candidates preparing for the final MRCPath. examinations." Journal of Pathology "The book is a worthy member of the Systemic Pathology Series, being easy to use for reference . . . and with illustrations of excellent standard. The book would be highly recommended for any department of histopathology or neuroscience, and at less than 100 might even be within reach of the individual trainee in histopathology." Neurology, Neuroscience and Psychiatry "I have thoroughly enjoyed reading it and I expect it to have widespread appeal. I particularly recommend it to general histopathologists and trainees." The Bulletin of the Royal College of Pathologists
