Das Pathologische Museum gehorte mit seinen uber 20.000 von Rudolf Virchow zusammengetragenen Objekten zu den umfangreichsten und bedeutendsten der Welt. Als Teil der Berliner Universitat diente es dem Unterricht und der Forschung, die Halfte des Hauses war als Schausammlung fur die Offentlichkeit zuganglich. Die Frage, was ein Museum, die Musealisierung einer Wissenschaft, im 19. Jahrhundert fur einen Forscher und sein Fach bedeuten und welche Funktionen dieser Institution zugedacht werden konnten, steht im Zentrum dieses kulturgeschichtlichen Annaherungsversuches an Virchows...

Hematopathology: Genomic Mechanisms of Neoplastic Diseases will keep physicians abreast of the rapid and complex changes in genomic medicine, as exemplified by the molecular pathology of hematologic malignancies. This timely volume will update physicians on the complexities of genomic lesions, as well as offer an integrated framework encompassing molecular diagnosis, the new WHO classification of hematologic neoplasms with focus on molecular pathology, prognostic value of molecular tests, and molecular monitoring of response to gene-targeted therapy. As such, it will be of great value to...

This issue of Clinics in Laboratory Medicine will focus on Veterinary Medicine. Article topics include acute phase protein testing, glucose monitoring in dogs and cats, equine neonatal intensive care, animal platelet disorders, canine lymphoma, reptile hematology, infectious diseases in birds, rare and endangered wildlife, and metabolic disease testing.

A huge amount of fixed and paraffin-embedded tissue is stored in every hospital. This is very precious material that can be used for translational research and for diagnostics. The molecular methods employed for analysis of these tissues are similar to the usual molecular biology and proteomics methods, but reliable results can be obtained only if specific steps are followed with great care. This book provides detailed and precise guidelines for molecular analysis of archive tissues and will serve as an invaluable aid for researchers and pathologists involved in translational research and...

Molecular Diagnostics in Dermatology and Dermatopathology presents the basics of molecular biology and molecular diagnostic methods most commonly used in the clinical laboratory, with an emphasis on the concepts and testing most relevant to dermatological diseases. Topics include the integration of newer diagnostic and prognostic techniques with 'traditional' histologic approaches, and discussions of regulatory, ethical, legal, economic issues and 'newer' technologies. This important diagnostic tool outlines the clinically relevant uses (i.e.; diagnostic, staging and/or prognostic)...
