Description
Practical, and intended for day-to-day use, this state-of-the-art New Edition presents the elements of immunohistochemistry in the context of the "total test". It deals logically with issues of test selection • reagent selection and quantification • protocols and methods • controls • results • interpretation • in situ hybridization • reporting • and significance. In each chapter, readers will find infectious diseases and prognostic markers and a molecular morphology perspective, focusing on DNA, RNA, and protein, thus offering the surgical pathologist a genuine ability to see with molecular eyes. Immunomicroscopy, 3rd Edition is Volume 19 in the Major Problems in Pathology Series.

With 32 expert contributors.

Reviews
"Intended for daily use, this guide presents the elements of immunohistochemistry in the context of the total test. It deals logically with topics such as test selection, reagent selection and quantification, protocols and methods, controls, results, interpretation, reporting, and significance. Each chapter describes infectious disease and prognostic markers and offers a molecular morphology perspective, focusing on DNA, RNA and protein. This third edition features an expanded authorship of internationally renowned experts and an organ system approach to diagnostic surgical pathology. The appendices address quality assurance and standardization protocols reflecting National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards guidelines; tissue microarrays; and laser microscopy and digital immunomicroscopy. Full-color illustrations are used throughout." -- Sci Tech Book News, March 2006
