This textbook provides practical information on how to perform and interpret smears and use smears for diagnostic intraoperative neuropathology. The book covers most aspects of brain biopsies that require intraoperative or "frozen section" diagnosis, including tumors, non-neoplastic lesions, infectious diseases, and metastases to the brain. The author also discusses more general aspects of smears, including their preparation and general interpretation. Emphasis is on the structural information about brain lesions supplied by the technique of smears, as well as the patterns of smears produced by different tumors. More than 200 full-color illustrations complement the text.

Part of the in-depth and practical Pattern Recognition series, Practical Surgical Neuropathology, 2nd Edition, by Drs. Arie Perry and Daniel J. Brat, helps you arrive at an accurate CNS diagnosis by using a pattern-based approach. Leading diagnosticians in neuropathology guide you from a histological (and/or clinical, radiologic, and molecular) pattern, through the appropriate work-up, around the pitfalls, and to the best diagnosis. Almost 2,000 high-quality illustrations capture key neuropathological patterns for a full range of common and rare conditions, and a "visual index" at the beginning of the book directs you to the exact location of in-depth diagnostic guidance. - Instructive algorithms provide detailed guidance based on 8 major (scanning magnification) patterns and 20 minor (high magnification) patterns – helping you narrow the range of diagnostic possibilities. - A user-friendly design color-codes patterns to specific entities, and key points are summarized in tables, charts, and graphs so you can quickly and easily find what you are looking for. Sweeping content updates. Patterns call-outs throughout. The patterns described initially in the text will be better linked directly within the chapter, reinforcing the patterns for further understanding.

Introducing the theoretical and practical basics of veterinary neuropathology, this concise and well illustrated book is an essential basic diagnostic guide for pathologists, neurologists and diagnostic imaging specialists. It presents readers with strategies to deal with neuropathological problems, showing how to interpret gross and histological lesions using a systematic approach based on pattern recognition. It starts with an overview of the general principles of neuroanatomy, neuropathological techniques, basic tissue reaction patterns, and recognition of major lesion patterns. The book goes on to cover vascular diseases, inflammatory diseases, trauma, congenital malformations, metabolic-toxic diseases, neoplasia and degenerative diseases mainly of the central nervous system. In the respective chapters pathologists can quickly find information to support their daily diagnostic workup for both small and large domestic species. Based on the authors’ extensive diagnostic and post graduate teaching experience as well as the inclusion of MRI as it relates to neuropathology, this book also offers a comprehensive but basic analysis of veterinary neuropathology that neurologists and other MRI users will find very useful. An essential manual for daily diagnostic work Richly illustrated with high quality colour gross, histological and MRI images Includes a section on the function and use of MRI (by Johann Lang, DECVDI) Accompanied by a website presenting MRI sequences for interpretation and correlation with neuropathological findings edited by Johann Lang (University of Bern, Switzerland) and Eric Wiesner (University of California, Davis, USA) www.wiley.com/go/vandevelde/veterinaryneuropathology

This practical guide to the diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases discusses modern molecular techniques, morphological classification, fundamentals of clinical symptomology, diagnostic pitfalls and immunostaining protocols. It is based on the proteinopathy concept of neurodegenerative disease, which has influenced classification and provides new strategies for therapy. Numerous high-quality images, including histopathology photomicrographs and neuroradiology scans, accompany the description of morphologic alterations and interpretation of immunoreactivities. Diagnostic methods and criteria are placed within recent developments in neuropathology, including the now widespread application of immunohistochemistry. To aid daily practice, the guide includes diagnostic algorithms and offers personal insights from experienced experts in the field. Special focus is given to the way brain tissue should be handled during diagnosis. This is a must-have reference for medical specialists and specialist medical trainees in the fields of pathology, neuropathology and neurology working with neuropathologic features of neurodegenerative diseases.

Neuropathology Techniques is an ideal bench-top manual for all aspects of autopsy and laboratory practice related to neurological disease and injury. The book provides a ready reference for practical laboratory methods to assist pathologists, biomedical scientists and mortuary technicians involved with preparation and processing of tissue removed from the central and peripheral nervous systems. Whilst a great deal of this work is performed in specialised centres, increasingly general pathologists and their colleagues outside these centres are asked to perform autopsies and process tissue related to neurological and muscle disease. The book includes all aspects of autopsy practice including relevant health & safety issues, as well as laboratory handling of brain, muscle, nerve and ophthalmic specimens and the highly topical subject of specimen retention and storage. Researchers in human and animal neurological diseases will also find essential all the material they need for preparing tissue for histological examination. The contents will also be helpful to all trainees in diagnostic histopathology, mortuary practice and biomedical sciences This is an extremely well designed book, which will prove essential for diagnostic histopathologists, neuropathologists & forensic pathologists. Mortuary technicians and biomedical scientists working in diagnostic histopathology and neuropathology will want to refer to it constantly. Postgraduate trainees in all these specialities will find Neuropathology Techniques the most useful learning and revision tool available.

In this workbench reference for clinical pathologists, introductory chapters are provided for the less experienced, then coverage includes the various types of tumors, illustrated and described, with discussion of clinical features, differential diagnosis, and therapy and complications. Throughout, there is acknowledgment of the idea that a multidisciplinary approach is now the norm for oncology. Coverage includes not just neoplasms of the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves, but also mass lesion such as cysts and vascular malformations that may involve the neuraxis and its coverings. Four of the five authors are based in the UK (and affiliated with the U. of Edinburgh, Frenchay Hospital, U. of Nottingham Medical School, and Southampton General Hospital), and the fifth is with Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School.
