abundantly illustrated title helps you systematically solve tough
diagnostic challenges in soft tissue and bone pathology. It uses select
images of clinical and pathological findings, together with succinct,
expert instructions and diagnostic pearls, to guide you through the

lesions of soft tissue and bone. By presenting material according to the
way pathologists actually work, this user-friendly volume helps you
quickly differentiate entities that have overlapping morphologic
features.

pathology, including the most common entities as well as selected rare
diseases.

- Features over 1,300 high-quality, full-color images of similar-looking
lesions side by side for easy comparison with respect to
clinicopathologic features and ancillary tests.
