With the 13th edition, Wintrobe’s Clinical Hematology once again bridges the gap between the clinical practice of hematology and the basic foundations of science. Broken down into eight parts, this book provides readers with a comprehensive overview of: Laboratory Hematology, The Normal Hematologic System, Transfusion Medicine, Disorders of Red Cells, Hemostasis and Coagulation; Benign Disorders of Leukocytes, The Spleen and/or Immunoglobulins; Hematologic Malignancies, and Transplantation. Within these sections, there is a heavy focus on the morphological exam of the peripheral blood smear, bone marrow, lymph nodes, and other tissues. With the knowledge about gene therapy and immunotherapy expanding, new, up-to-date information about the process and application of these therapies is included. Likewise, the editors have completely revised material on stem cell transplantation in regards to both malignant and benign disorders, graft versus host disease, and the importance of long-term follow-up of transplantation survivors.

First published in 2006, the bestselling Wintrobe’s Atlas of Clinical Hematologyhas now been comprehensively updated by a brand-new editorial team to bring you state-of-the-art pictorial coverage of the complete range of hematologic conditions. Thousands of meticulous, full-color images capture the characteristic appearance of each pathologic entity, and concise descriptions point out features of diagnostic importance. The result is a peerless reference to facilitate confident diagnosis in hematology.

Featuring over 400 brilliantly sharp, high-resolution diagnostic digital photomicrographs combined with concise, clinically oriented text, this full-color atlas is a comprehensive pictorial guide to diagnostic hematology. Tied to the world-renowned textbook Wintrobe's Clinical Hematology, this brand-new atlas enables physicians to see and readily comprehend diseased tissues and understand the complex assays used in patient care. The comprehensive pictorial collection covers all hematologic diseases and includes relevant clinical and radiological images, photomicrographs (surgical and autopsy specimens), and advanced diagnostic laboratory images including molecular assays, FISH, and cytogenetics. The color pictures are combined with diagrams and tables that help readers use "algorithmic" approaches to diagnosis. Two complementary formats allow readers to approach hematologic diseases from either Wintrobe's disease categorization perspective, or by an image-directed approach based on morphological pattern recognition in diseased tissues. A bound-in DVD contains large high-resolution photomicrographs, digitally enhanced to allow readers to interact with components of the print image.
