This book, based on the experience of the Amsterdam Lymphomas Panel, provides the theoretical background for understanding and classifying lymphomas in a standard way. Using the revised European-American classification, the first chapter describes Hodgkin's lymphomas and subsequent chapters deal with non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. A chapter has been devoted to extranodal lymphomas and their clinical features, and an updated CD list of monoclonal antibodies is included for interested pathologists, haematologists and cytotechnicians. This book provides the reader with clear pictures of histology, cytology, and immunocyto/histochemistry of lymphomas and a good description of the techniques used. It has been written by experts in the field of clinical pathology and is superbly illustrated. This book is intended for doctors in training and practice; higher practitioners; senior medical students
