Biomedical scientists are the foundation of modern healthcare, from
cancer screening to diagnosing HIV, from blood transfusion for
surgery to food poisoning and infection control. Without biomedical
scientists, the diagnosis of disease, the evaluation of the
effectiveness of treatment, and research into the causes and cures
of disease would not be possible. The Fundamentals of Biomedical
Science series has been written to reflect the challenges of
practicing biomedical science today. It draws together essential
basic science with insights into laboratory practice to show how an
understanding of the biology of disease is coupled to the
analytical approaches that lead to diagnosis. Assuming only a
minimum of prior knowledge, the series reviews the full range of
disciplines to which a Biomedical Scientist may be exposed - from
microbiology to cytopathology to transfusion science. Clinical
Immunology gives the new biomedical scientist an insight into the
function of the immune system, the front line of defence against
pathological disease, and the diagnostic techniques used to
identify associated malfunctions and disorders. By examining the
key immunological principles and scientific basis of laboratory
techniques with a focus on the biomedical scientist's role in the
diagnostic laboratory, the reader is provided with everything
needed to prepare for a specialist qualification in immunology.
Current tests, the rationale behind their use, the technologies
employed, and the quality measures applied are illustrated by
specific case studies showing how the clinician interprets the
results to help the patient. Online Resource Centre The Online
Resource Centre to accompany Clinical Immunology features: For
registered adopters of the book: - Figures from the book, available
to download For students: - Answers to self-check and end of
chapter questions - Video podcasts including interviews with
practicing biomedical scientists and 'in the lab' footage showing
biomedical science in practice
