Maintaining the first editions unique parallel to the strategy used by pathologists and pulmonologists to arrive at a patients diagnosis in daily practice, Diagnostic Pulmonary Pathology starts with the patient and their biopsy findings, directing the pathologist or clinician to the proper diagnosis. With many advances in pulmonary pathology, radiology, and pulmonary medicine, this new edition provides thorough updates in:
progress in classification and diagnosis of interstitial lung diseases
evolution of our understanding of pre-neoplastic lesions
technology in histopathology
molecular pathology
thoracic radiology
Written by contributing doctors who are at the forefront of recent advancements, Diagnostic Pulmonary Pathology:
is organized based on how the patient should be approached, and the patients own projections, signs, symptoms, and disease
provides new imaging techniques and molecular diagnostic tests
investigates the new classification schemes, i.e. classification and terminology for lung neoplasms, pulmonary hypertension, and lung transplant rejection
gives coverage of the merging of radiology and pathology, including molecular imaging
