Integrated Pathology: From Concepts to Diagnosis — Volume 1: Haematopathology and Transfusion Medicine, International Edition

The modern haematopathology trainee works between two registers: authoritative textbooks that revise slowly, and a WHO classification that updates faster than any of them.Integrated Pathology, Volume 1 covers haematopathology and transfusion medicine across 48 chapters, from haematopoiesis to transfusion practice. Written for FRCPath candidates, international residents, and early-career consultants, it includes three practical-examination chapters - peripheral smear, bone marrow, and coagulation and blood bank - built for the OSPE-style and table-side formats most haematopathology texts leave out.Every chapter runs on the same five elements: a Big Picture frame that fixes the concept before the detail; Quick Recall boxes for revision; Exam Pitfall flags for the traps examiners set; Pathologist's Eye sign-out reasoning; and International Frameworks panels reconciling the WHO 5th Edition and ICC 2022 classifications across malignant haematology, the anaemias, haemostasis, and blood banking.More than 140 figures pair open-licence photomicrographs with stepwise diagnostic algorithms for the acute and chronic leukaemias, lymphomas, plasma cell neoplasms, myelodysplastic and myeloproliferative neoplasms, and haemostatic disorders. Every topic is mapped to the current FRCPath syllabus and to the way these diagnoses are reached at the bench.
