The approach described in this book is different from that in most student texts, and has been very successful in practice, starting almost from scratch, but omitting many of the ‘basics’ such as the details of hematopoiesis, laboratory technology, and so on, which are hardly relevant to the practising clinician and student in the wards, and are primarily of interest to the hematologist and sometimes to the clinical specialist. Considerable emphasis is given to the clinical history and examination, and the interpretation of the clinical patterns thus exposed. Hopefully it will overcome many of the traditional problems experienced in practical diagnostic haematology.
Diagnostic Hematology
The purpose of this text is to present a complete hematology course for Clinical Laboratory Science (CLS) students, as well as to provide a resource for clinical laboratory practitioners, medical students, and residents. It presents an in-depth study of cell counting, morphologic differentiation and evaluation, and related areas, such as flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, and cytogenetics. A chapter on specific age groups covers the unique aspects of hematology in the pediatric and geriatric populations. A section on the etiology and treatment of leukocyte neoplasms has been included to provide some insight into the special considerations of oncologic disorders. Chapters begin with an outline and learning objectives, and color figures are presented as close to the citation as possible to facilitate understanding of the discussion. Most chapters end with a summary, and in many cases, review questions or case studies are included to assess or reinforce understanding of the material.

"This book is well written, concise, and easy to read and understand. It serves as a very handy and useful resource for busy laboratorians, who routinely encounter the situations detailed therein. It is also helpful for students, who need to learn how to recognize and avoid such situations, by providing expert guidance and examples of ways to keep these types of errors from potentially causing harm to patients."--Cynthia S. Johns, Laboratory Corporation of America, Lab Medicine The Diagnostic Standards of Care series presents common errors associated with diagnoses in clinical pathology, using case examples to illustrate effective analysis based on current evidence and standards. Each volume demonstrates the use of quality assurance and the role of the pathologist in ensuring quality and patient safety. Hematology and Immunology focuses on core issues in achieving quality in all areas of hematopathology and immunology, with an emphasis on identifying established, evidence-based standards. It addresses potential problems and sources of error in testing procedures, how to anticipate and avoid such problems, and how to manage them if they occur. Discussions are problem-based and address common situations and issues faced by clinical pathologists or members of a laboratory team. Using actual case studies, the book provides plentiful examples of errors, along with discussions on how to deal with them effectively.
