Common Diagnostic Pitfalls in Thyroid Cytopathology

Will be provided later.

“Common Diagnostic Pitfalls in Thyroid Cytopathology is ideal for a range of interests giving good examples of clinical history with pertinent clinical/testing points for general clinicians and pathologists for correlation with cytologic findings. The book lends itself to the interest of a broad range of scholars (such as medical students, medical technologists, residents, cytology fellows or general/specialty practitioners) that are seeking a quick, easy introduction to thyroid cytopathology and its associated everyday nuances.” (Elizabeth M. Kurian, The ASC Bulletin, Vol. 54 (4), July, 2017)
