For the surgical pathologist, one of the more daunting tasks in clinical practice is to render a diagnosis on non-tumoral liver tissue. Small liver tissue core biopsies are especially difficult and many cases are traditionally referred to specialized gastrointestinal and liver pathologists."Practical Hepatic Pathology: A Diagnostic Approach" by Romil Saxena, a volume in the Pattern Recognition Series, allows the general anatomic pathologist to systematically study an organ which is affected so much by so many clinical factors in the patient. Find granulomas in a particular case? Saxena's book lets the investigator go through an evidence based diagnostic tree that eventually leads to the specific diagnosis or in most hepatic cases, a set of plausible diagnoses. The photomicrographs are of excellent quality and the contributions of other experts in the field are a definite plus.This book is recommended not only as a welcome supplement for the GI fellowship trained liver pathologist, but as a valuable resource that will assist the surgical pathologist to methodically approach the liver case during daily signout.
This is part of the Elsevier Pattern Recognition Series and provides a wealth of diagnostic information for liver diseases and disorders. In addition to the outstanding photography and extensive text in the printed volume, it provides online access via an account key (the key is located on the front inside cover, and is hidden by a scratch-off mask to ensure the key is used only by the book owner). Online setup is straightforward, but you have to set up an account before you can activate the title.This is written for a physician or researcher as a diagnostic aid. But, it also offers value for a highly motivated layperson with a health sciences or biology background who is dealing with liver disease and would like to be able feel some measure of empowerment by delving into the details not available through conventional Internet searches (or nearly as well organized).
Not super qualified to say much about this except that I would definitely want to use something for reference on diagnostic techniques if I was having liver surgery and or problems.Very high quality book with lots of recent examples, cases and color diagrams.
