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.
