Biopsy Interpretation of Lymph Nodes

This volume is a practical illustrated guide to the pathologic diagnosis of Hodgkin's disease, non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, and other diseases appearing in lymph node biopsies. Dr. Swerdlow's approach to lymph node diagnosis is grounded in a thorough knowledge of the varied ways in which lymphocytes can be charcterized. It provides a systematic approach to the diagnosis and classification of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, based on the Lukes/Collins and Kiel classifications. Close attention is also given to accurated diagnosis of conditions other than lymphomas and to evaluation of entities that do not yet have well-defined histopathologic, immunophenotypic, or genotypic criteria.
