Summary:

This practical guide provides information essential to understanding the significance of molecular biology and its application to everyday practice. Coverage focuses on the spectrum of currently used molecular tests in the areas of hematopathology, solid tumors, genetics, and identify testing. Examples of both molecular and cytogenetic assays demonstrate how these tests are used in today's pathology labs to detect a wide range of infectious diseases and inherited and metabolic conditions.
