Diagnostic Molecular Pathology

Praise for the First Edition: "Diagnostic Molecular Pathology is destined to become an important cornerstone and go-to volume for pathologists, researchers, and clinicians, indeed anyone who wants to understand the approach and application of modern molecular techniques in disease detection and diagnosis. Drs. Coleman and Tsongalis, and their impressive stable of contributors, are to be congratulated for making the exciting and rapidly expanding science of molecular diagnosis accessible to the novice, while also providing the expert with important details on the nuances. Beyond just a compendium of useful information, it is a well-curated journey through basic concepts, infectious diseases, malignancy, hematopathology, and genetic diseases, and even includes access to a website with lab test videos and decision-making exercises." --Richard N. Mitchell, MD, PhD (Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School) "With much fanfare, molecular techniques have revolutionized clinical medicine, from diagnosis to personalized medical therapeutics. It is with this background that Diagnostic Molecular Pathology approaches the daunting task of summarizing the advances in the field from infectious disease, heritable and acquired genetic diseases, hematological malignancies, to pharmacogenomics. In a comprehensive publication, the editors perform a yeoman’s effort in covering this dynamic and exciting field." --Lawrence M. Silverman, PhD (University of Virginia School of Medicine) "Diagnostic Molecular Pathology provides a panoramic view of diagnostic molecular pathology testing, written by leaders in the field. It is a great reference and learning tool." --Dani S. Zander, MD (University of Cincinnati Medical Center)
