Diagnostic Immunohistochemistry-5판

User-friendly and concise, the new edition of this popular reference is your #1 guide for the appropriate use of
immunohistochemical stains.
Dr. David J. Dabbs and leading experts in the field use a consistent, organ system approach to cover all aspects of the
field, with an emphasis on the role of genomics in diagnosis and theranostic applications that will better inform
treatment options.
Each well-written and well-researched chapter is enhanced with diagnostic algorithms, charts, tables, and superb,
full-color histologic images, making this text a practical daily resource for all surgical pathologists.

New to this Edition

Contains new material on non-lymphoid malignancies, Hodgkin/non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and an expanded
chapter on digital imaging and quantitative immunohistochemistry.

Provides new grading schemes for several organs, along with new antibodies to cover more genomic
immunohistochemistry applications.

Offers more emphasis in the breast section of "eyes on" tissue for molecular/IHC prognostics compared to the
current trend of gene-expression profiling of breast cancer.

Expert Consult™ eBook version included with purchase. This enhanced eBook experience allows you to
search all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of devices.

Key Features

Features 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.

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.

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