The first edition of The Paris System for Reporting Urinary Cytology introduced a completely new paradigm for detecting bladder cancer by urine cytology. This system concentrated on defining morphological characteristics of the most clinically significant form of bladder cancer, High Grade Urothelial Carcinoma. This new approach has been widely accepted throughout the world, and has become part of the daily practice of cytology. Considering that the first edition of The Paris System (TPS) introduced a new model of urinary cytodiagnosis, verification and expansion of initial material and data were anticipated. Based on evolving knowledge and readership requests, the group of highly experience...
In this issue of Surgical Pathology Clinics, guest editor Dr. Christopher J. VandenBussche brings his considerable expertise to the topic of The Current and Future Impact of Cytopathology on Patient Care. Top experts discuss how minimally invasive procedures can provide critical information to guide patient management—for example, cytopathology specimens that allow for the timely and personalized treatment of patients, reducing the number of more costly and invasive procedures. This issue focuses on the recognition of critical cytomorphologic features, current and developing options for ancillary testing, and the potential use of cytopathology specimens in precision medicine (precision cyt...
Liquid-based cytology preparations are currently the standard of care for gynecological cytology, and are being increasingly used for non-gynecological cytology. Diagnostic Liquid-Based Cytology serves as a handy guide to diagnostic cytopathology on liquid-based preparations. The authors, renowned experts in the field, provide clear, concise, and practical diagnostic guidance. This handbook equips you to achieve accurate diagnosis of most commonly and uncommonly encountered diseases in exfoliative and aspirated tissue samples from various sites. The key cytopathological features of various diseases are described. The book is lavishly illustrated with dozens of color images that depict the fu...
In this issue of Surgical Pathology Clinics, guest editor Dr. Aatur D. Singhi brings his considerable expertise to the topic of Pancreatobiliary Neoplastic Pathology. Top experts in the field discuss precursor and malignant neoplasms (with mimics) such as molecular discoveries (e.g., IOPNs), neoadjuvant treatment histopathology (e.g., grading), immunohistochemical biomarkers (e.g., prognostic markers for neuroendocrine tumors), and more. - Contains 13 relevant, practice-oriented topics including the diagnostic challenge of evaluating small biopsies from the pancreatobiliary system; integrating molecular analysis to the pathologic evaluation of pancreatic cysts; the cytomorphologic and molecu...

Part of the highly regarded Biopsy Interpretation Series, Biopsy Interpretation of the Bladder, 4th Edition, provides practical, highly illustrated information on the diagnosis and prognosis of the full range of biopsies of the urothelial tract. Practical, well-organized, and highly readable, this fully revised volume by Drs. Jonathan I. Epstein, Victor E. Reuter, and Mahul B. Amin addresses both common and unusual issues that arise in the day-to-day interpretation of bladder biopsies, teaching the best diagnostic practices as well as how to avoid the most common pitfalls.
" Pathology residents, fellows, and practitioners will welcome this cytopathology review of carefully selected case scenarios drawn from the Johns Hopkins case archive. Each illustrated case scenario contains multiple-choice questions along with detailed explanations and references. Authored by distinguished faculty at John Hopkins University, the helpful review covers all major topics within cytopathology. Each clinical case scenario includes representative images and clinical history, diagnostic question, and detailed discussion supported by thoughtfully selected key references. Cases are presented in random order to maximize their teaching and review value and can also be accessed by method and site. "

This succinct yet comprehensive book describes current and emerging concepts in risk stratification, detection, and staging of bladder cancer. Divided into two distinct sections, the first section focuses on contemporary and novel imaging modalities in bladder cancer staging. The second section illuminates advanced optical techniques and tumor markers for bladder cancer detection. The volume also addresses such topics as novel immuno-positron emission tomography radiotracers, imaging modalities for monitoring of tumor response, and non-invasive urine biomarkers such as current and emerging molecular markers for bladder cancer screening, early diagnosis, and surveillance. Comprehensive Diagnostic Approach to Bladder Cancer: Molecular Imaging and Biomarkers is written by experts in the field and provides a valuable resource for urologists, oncologists, urologic oncologists, radiation oncologists, allied health professionals, residents, and fellows who treat and manage bladder cancer.
This book is the culmination of an international effort to bring consistency and diagnostic efficiency to effusion cytology for the sake of patient care. The authors recognize special challenges in serous fluid cytopathology, such as reporting the presence of Mullerian epithelium in peritoneal fluids. What is an appropriate serous fluid volume to ensure adequacy? How should mesothelial proliferations be reported and is it appropriate to make an interpretation of malignant mesothelioma? How specific should a report be regarding the origin and subtyping of tumors found in serous fluids? What are the appropriate quality monitors for this specimen type? Special chapters on considerations for per...
