| Summary, etc. |
Enables both the haematologist and laboratory scientist to identify blood cell features, from the most common to the more obscureProvides essential information on methods of collection, blood film preparation and staining, together with the principles of manual and automated blood countsCompletely revised and updated, incorporating much newly published information: now includes advice on further tests when a specific diagnosis is suspected400 high quality photographs to aid with blood cell identificationHighlights the purpose and clinical relevance of haematology laboratory tests throughout. |
