The New Edition of the field's standard sourcebook delivers thoroughly revised and up-to-date coverage of aspiration and exfoliative cytology and its impact on the practice of anatomic pathology today. Over 1,700 all-new, full-color illustrations capture the appearance of a complete range of cytopathology specimens, their histologic correlations, and the results of relevant ancillary studies. Each chapter discusses the challenges of that specimen site; describes the diagnostic criteria and differential diagnosis; and explains how the diagnosis is reached.

Presents comprehensive, pictorial coverage of the cytopathology of every organ system.
Includes diagnostic rules and tips.
Discusses medical liability and the practice of cytopathology.
Highlights key information in tables and boxes.

Reflects all of the changes in both aspiration and exfoliative cytology, and discusses the utility of different cytologic stains in detail.
Features an expanded section on gynecologic cytopathology that includes the diagnostic criteria for breast cancer and the associated diagnostic applications.
Discusses new pathologic entities and the Betheseda System of Nomenclature for interpreting Pap tests.
Covers ancillary techniques of diagnostic cytopathology
Addresses ethical and medicological issues in new chapters.
Offers over 1,700 all-new, full-color illustrations that clearly demonstrate procedures as well as more Diff Quik stains for fine needle aspirates.
Includes true histologic correlations and discusses the role of all ancillary tests.
