The International Academy of Cytology Yokohama System for Reporting Breast Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy Cytopathology

This text describes a system of reporting breast fine needle aspiration biopsy that uses five clearly defined categories, each described by a specific term and each with a specific risk of malignancy. The five categories are insufficient/inadequate, benign, atypical, suspicious of malignancy and malignant. Each category has a risk of malignancy and is linked to management recommendations, which include several options because it is recognized that diagnostic infrastructure, such as the availability of core needle biopsy and ultrasound guidance, vary between developed and low and middle income countries. This text includes key diagnostic cytological criteria for each of the many lesions and t...

Transabdominal Fine-needle Aspiration Biopsy

? Over 1,350 illustrations in 350 innovative composite figures designed to teach general pathologists the cytologic approach and cytologists the histologic basis for cytologic criteria? CD-ROM containing high resolution composite images that can be enlarged to the size of computer screen and detailed legends with clinical presentation, cytologic clues with different stains from low to high magnification as well as the mistakes made and lessons learned? Pathologic entities are arranged in the current classifications used by surgical pathologists so that they can translate their experience in histopathology to cytopathology? New classifications of tumors based on advances in cytogenetic and mo...

Fine-Needle Biopsy of Superficial and Deep Masses

Needle biopsy is a simple, reliable, inexpensive, well-tolerated, and minimally invasive procedure for the diagnosis of tumors, both in superficial and in deep sites. Today, following the shift to a more conservative approach to tumor treatment, and in this era of "tailored" or "targeted" oncological therapies, the use of needle biopsy in the diagnosis of neoplasia, at all phases of the disease, is expected to increase dramatically. The efficacy of this technique is, however, strongly influenced by the experience of the physician performing the technique and by the pathologist’s ability to interpret the results derived from the minimal cellular harvest. The aim of this volume is to provide...

Endobronchial Ultrasound-Guided Transbronchial Needle Aspiration (EBUS-TBNA): A Practical Approach

This high-yield reference book focuses on the clinical, technical, and pathological aspects of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA). Its reviews cover all aspects of EBUS-TBNA, including the clinical perspective, technical aspects of the procedure, and cytomorphology of common and uncommon entities, as well as highlights diagnostic challenges. Each chapter features a multitude of full-color high-resolution images and includes key references to the current literature in the field. Additionally, reference tables and informative figures highlight the salient points. The book is unique in that it is written by experienced thoracic surgeons, pulmonary medicine physicians, and cytopathologists who use EBUS-TBNA in a large medical center. This publication is of interest to individuals learning and practicing cytopathology, in addition to clinicians practicing pulmonary/thoracic medicine or surgery. In short, it provides important pearls of wisdom to create a comprehensive reference for all physicians involved with EBUS-TBNA.

Advances in Interventional Pulmonology

Advances in Interventional Pulmonology is a comprehensive, evidence-based text on diagnostic and therapeutic bronchoscopic procedures. This volume covers basic and advanced procedures in the subspecialty of interventional pulmonology (IP). The material presented in this text book is also supported with expert opinion (where evidence is lacking) of authors who are leading researchers in the field of IP from around the world. The book delivers information about anatomical, physiological, pathological, and therapeutic concepts in IP to physicians and is, therefore, suitable for readers having different levels of expertise. The authors have also discussed novel and experimental techniques, and procedures when indicated for the benefit of research oriented readers.

Rapid On-site Evaluation (ROSE)

This book introduces basic ROSE techniques and resources required to set up ROSE service. It reviews the cytomorphologic features that are recognizable during ROSE, including those important for sample adequacy, specimen triage, preliminary interpretation, and potential diagnostic pitfalls. Economic and regulatory aspects are discussed as well as the pros and cons of telecytology. The book is formatted for clinical settings, simulating the ROSE process that occurs in the ultrasound room, CT room, bronchoscopy suite, and endoscopy suite. Each chapter focuses on the cytomorphologic clues and pitfalls of the entities specific to that clinical setting. Rapid On-Site Evaluation: A Practical Guide will be a valuable resource for pathologists, cytotechnologists, physicians who perform biopsies and/or ROSE evaluation, and trainees for utilizing ROSE and improving diagnostic performance of biopsies.

  • Publisher: CRC Press

An intuitive, ingenious and powerful technique, sentinel lymph node biopsy has entered clinical practice with astonishing rapidity and now represents a new standard of care for melanoma and breast cancer patients, while showing great promise for the treatment of urologic, colorectal, gynecologic, and head and neck cancers. This text, written by international experts in the technique, provides a clear and comprehensive guide, presenting a detailed overview and discussing the various mapping techniques available and how these are applied in a number of leading institutions. This essential resource for surgical onocologists, pathologists, and specialists in nuclear medicine will also provide key information for those planning to start a sentinel lymph node program.

Prostate Biopsy Interpretation: An Illustrated Guide

This book covers all the practical issues related to the interpretation of prostatic biopsies in day-to-day practice, including: biopsy sampling and processing; the diagnosis of limited cancer; differentiation of prostate cancers from benign lesions and recognition of histologic variants; the recognition and clinical significance of “atypical” diagnoses and HGPIN; the identification of recently described entities; the contemporary approach to Gleason grading; the utility of immunohistochemical markers and emerging molecular markers; and the reporting of prostate biopsies. Algorithms, flow charts, and tables are used throughout to simulate the thought and decision-making process upon encountering common clinical scenarios during sign-out of prostate biopsy. The book is richly illustrated with carefully selected, high-quality color images and will appeal especially to practicing surgical pathologists as well as pathology residents and fellows in training.
