The Complete (But Not Obsessive) Hematopathology Guide
The Complete (But Not Obsessive) Hematopathology Guide is a thorough but not-too-detailed study guide that covers all the anemias, leukemias, and lymphomas that you’ll need to know for your pathology course (and for boards), plus other stuff (like a review of lab tests and morphology, answers to typical questions you’ll be asked by attendings, and a reference section with all the important CD markers, stains, and cytogenetic changes).

Here's what students have said about the book:

“I am in my last semester and carry it where ever I go!!!!”
“I think it is absolutely genius! This is so much better than reading through a dense textbook.”
“You strike the perfect balance between detail and convenience. I will definitely use this to study for boards.”
“Your book on hematopathology is excellent. My pathology exam here in Sicily is on February 25 and it helped very much.”
“This is great. I’m using it as one of my resources for hemepath rotation….really useful. Thanks!!”
“I am an osteopathic medical student and we just covered all the skin, blood and lymph material over the last few months. What I enjoyed most was the conciseness of the pdf and the straightforward reasoning. I do read Robbins when I have time but the vastness of this material was becoming stressful so I looked for something less voluminous and I came across these study guides on your website. So thank you and I will be using them when I take both the USMLE and COMLEX step 1 come here in June.”

The short story:

If you’re studying for boards, or if you’re faced with hematopathology in your regular pathology course, you might find that you are in need of a thorough but not-too-detailed study guide…
something that gives you a nice underlying structure, and then fills in the diseases with
just the right amount of information.

The Complete (but not obsessive) Hematopathology Guide gives you an introduction to hematology (with clinical pearls and laboratory tests), lays out a framework for understanding the differences between the big groups of disorders, and then delves into the main diseases.

Written specifically for medical and dental students by a veteran professor of pathology, it’s got everything in it that you need to know for boards and for your path course.

The longer story:

Here’s what you’ll get in this book. After the initial clinical and laboratory overview, we’ll look in depth at the major hematologic diseases:

Anemia
Benign leukocytoses
Leukemia
……….…Acute myeloid leukemia
……….…Acute lymphoblastic leukemia
……….…Chronic myeloproliferative disorders
……….…Chronic lymphoproliferative disorders
Myeloma
Lymph node disorders
……….…Benign lymph node disorders
……….…Non-Hodgkin lymphoma
……….…Hodgkin disease

You’ll learn about:

Clinical features (signs, symptoms, treatment and prognosis)
Pathogenesis (the cellular and molecular causes of each disease)
Morphology (what the diseases look like under the microscope)
Immunophenotyping (cell surface and nuclear markers)
Genetics (chromosomal changes and how to detect them)

The Complete (but not obsessive) Hematopathology Guide is designed to be affordable for students. For shelling out $9.99, you’ll get:

113 pages and over 27,000 words of essential hematopathology content
40 nice, clear, perfect-color photomicrographs (no blurry, obscure, or black-and-white crap)
13 little essays (called “Things to make you look smart”) that answer typical questions attendings will ask you on your clinical rotations
A clear understanding of the 4 differentiating features of the leukemias (acute vs. chronic, myeloid vs. lymphoid)
A review of the key morphologic features of all the white cells (and their precursors)
Complete lists of the major immunophenotypic markers, cytochemical stains, and cytogenetic changes used in the diagnosis of leukemias and lymphomas
40 study questions (and answers) addressing disease features most likely to be covered on exams

And here are some things you won’t get:

Inaccurate, incomplete, or out-of-date information
Fluff (stuff you won’t need for class, boards, or patient care)
Complicated, wordy, or boring text

If you need to review (or learn) the basic foundations of hematopathology and the essential details of the important diseases, you’ve found the right book! Check out www.PathologyStudent.com for lots of good pathology information.
