Cawson’s Essentials of Oral Pathology and Oral Medicine 7th Edition

Cawson’s Essentials of Oral Pathology and Oral Medicine 7th Edition

This is the seventh edition of a highly successful book on oral pathology and oral medicine for dental studentsand postgraduates taking further dental exams such as the FDS. Radical changes were introduced when the sixth edition was published in 1998, the most important of which were the restriction of the content to oral pathology and oral medicine from its former broader coverage, and the introduction of colour illustrations. A major change to the seventh edition will be that colour illustrations will be spread throughout the book.

  • New edition of the dominant textbook on oral pathology and oral medicine – known to all lecturers as the book they used themselves in its earlier versions.
  • Comprehensive coverage of both oral pathology and oral medicine in one book – the student would have to buy two competing books to cover the same ground.
  • Flow charts guide the student through the process of diagnosis
  • Lucid and witty writing style.
  • Now has colour throughout, with greatly increased number of colour photographs plus second colour in text and tables, (previous edition had colour pictures in about 2/3 of book).
  • More explanatory labeling of photomicrographs.

100 Cases in Clinical Pathology and Laboratory Medicine 2nd Edition

100 Cases in Clinical Pathology and Laboratory Medicine 2nd Edition

A 77-year-old man phones ‘999’ after experiencing severe backache. The paramedics arrive to find him in severe pain, and cold and clammy. While at his house, they note that he smokes and also elicit a history of hypertension. He is tachycardic and hypotensive en route to hospital, and intravenous fluids are started. You have been assigned his initial assessment …

100 Cases in Clinical Pathology and Laboratory Medicine presents 100 clinical scenarios commonly seen by medical students and junior doctors in the emergency department, outpatient clinic, operating theatre or in general practice. A succinct summary of the patient’s history, examination and initial investigations is followed by questions on each case, with particular emphasis on the interpretation of the results and in which an understanding of the underlying clinical pathology is central to arriving at the correct diagnosis. The answer includes a detailed discussion on each topic, providing an essential revision aid as well as a practical guide for students and junior doctors, especially those preparing for undergraduate and postgraduate examinations.

Making speedy and appropriate clinical decisions, and choosing the best course of action to take as a result, is one of the most important and challenging parts of training to become a doctor. Fully revised and updated for this second edition, these true-to-life cases will teach students and junior doctors to recognize important clinical conditions, to request the appropriate pathological investigation and correctly interpret those results, and, as a result, to develop their diagnostic and management skills.

Diagnostic Molecular Pathology: A Guide to Applied Molecular Testing 1st Edition

Diagnostic Molecular Pathology: A Guide to Applied Molecular Testing 1st Edition

Diagnostic Molecular Pathology: A Guide to Applied Molecular Testing is organized around disease types (genetic disease, infectious disease, neoplastic disease, among others). In each section, the authors provide background on disease mechanisms and describe how laboratory testing is built on knowledge of these mechanisms. Sections are dedicated to general methodologies employed in testing (to convey the concepts reflected in the methods), and specific description of how these methods can be applied and are applied to specific diseases are described.

The book does not present molecular methods in isolation, but considers how other evidence (symptoms, radiology or other imaging, or other clinical tests) is used to guide the selection of molecular tests or how these other data are used in conjunction with molecular tests to make diagnoses (or otherwise contribute to clinical workup). In addition, final chapters look to the future (new technologies, new approaches) of applied molecular pathology and how discovery-based research will yield new and useful biomarkers and tests.

Diagnostic Molecular Pathology: A Guide to Applied Molecular Testing contains exercises to test readers on their understanding of how molecular diagnostic tests are utilized and the value of the information that can be obtained in the context of the patient workup. Readers are directed to an ancillary website that contains supplementary materials in the form of exercises where decision trees can be employed to simulate actual clinical decisions.

  • Focuses on the menu of molecular diagnostic tests available in modern molecular pathology or clinical laboratories that can be applied to disease detection, diagnosis, and classification in the clinical workup of a patient
  • Explains how molecular tests are utilized to guide the treatment of patients in personalized medicine (guided therapies) and for prognostication of disease
  • Features an ancillary website with self-testing exercises where decision trees can be employed to simulate actual clinical decisions
  • Highlights new technologies and approaches of applied molecular pathology and how discovery-based research will yield new and useful biomarkers and tests
