Description - Rodak's Hematology - E-Book: Rodak's Hematology - E-Book by Elaine M Keohane

Make sure you are thoroughly prepared to work in a clinical laboratory. Rodak's Hematology: Clinical Principles and Applications, 7th Edition uses hundreds of full-color photomicrographs to help you understand the essentials of hematology and hemostasis. This new edition details the parts and functions of the cell; shows how to accurately identify cells; covers normal hematopoiesis through diseases of erythroid, myeloid, lymphoid, and megakaryocytic origins; and simplifies hemostasis and thrombosis concepts and disorders. Easy to follow and understand, this book also covers key topics, including working in the hematology and hemostasis laboratory; complementary testing areas such as flow cytometry, cytogenetics, and molecular diagnostics; and laboratory testing of blood cells and body fluid cells.

Over 700 full-color illustrations and photomicrographs make it easier for students to visualize hematology concepts and show what they'll encounter in the lab, with images appearing near their mentions in the text to minimize flipping pages back and forth. Content throughout text reflects latest information on hematology. Instructions for lab procedures include sources of possible errors along with comments. Hematology instruments are described, compared, and contrasted. Case studies in each chapter provide opportunities to apply hematology concepts to real-life scenarios. Hematology/hemostasis reference ranges are listed on the inside front and back covers for quick reference. A bulleted summary makes it easy for students to review the important points in every chapter. Learning objectives begin each chapter and indicate what students should achieve, with review questions appearing at the end.
