  • Covers all aspects of the field, with an emphasis on the role of genomics in diagnosis and theranostic applications that will better inform treatment options.

  • Includes the latest grading schemes in several organs along with new antibodies to cover more genomic immunohistochemistry applications.

  • Contains current biomarker guidelines and up-to-date references throughout.

  • Offers a systematic approach to the diagnostic entities of each organ system, including detailed differential diagnoses, diagnostic algorithms, and immunohistograms that depict immunostaining patterns of tumors.

  • Contains numerous charts and tables, as well as 1,500 high-quality color histologic images that assist in making a definitive diagnosis.

  • Discusses diagnostic pitfalls through immunohistologic differential diagnosis wherever appropriate so you can provide the most accurate diagnoses.

  • Covers many more antigens than other texts, and discusses antibody specifications with tables that convey information on uses, clones, vendors, sources, antibody titers, and types of antigen retrieval.

  • Enhanced eBook version included with purchase. Your enhanced eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of devices.
