Urinary Cytology: Manual and Atlas

Excellent illustrations and the latest technology from the

clinic, practice and laboratory are compiled for both the

practicing urologist and the researching cytopathologist in

the book "Urinary Cytology." The completely revised and

up-dated text in the new second edition reflects the first

common effort of urologists, pathologists and

cytopathologists to find a unified concept: from

conventional cytology to electron microscopy toflow

cytometry.

The authors' main emphasis is on conveying practical

techniques for the collection, concentration, fixation,

staining and analysis of cellular material. They clearly

discuss the circumstances under which new techniques are

advisable and the relevance of these techniques when

difficult questions of detail arise. At the same time, basic

scientific principles arepresented in comprehensible form.

The atlas section gives examples of urologic cytology,

compares pathological with normal results, discusses the

problems in differential diagnosis and points the way to

solutions.
