The practice of dermatopathology has evolved from viewing
predominantly haematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained sections
through the microscope to include an array of more specialized
tests. These are used as stand-alone tests or in addition to the
H&E. Diagnostic Dermatopathology: A Guide to Ancillary Tests
Beyond the H&E is a practical guide to the most important of
these new diagnostic techniques. Aside from a brief review of
H&E in the Introduction, the focus of the book is on the wide
range of more recent ancillary tests commonly used by clinicians,
including sections on special stains, immunohistochemistry,
immunofluorescence, electron microscopy and molecular testing. Each
section describes why each of these tests is performed, how to use
them and how to interpret the results they provide. Abundantly
illustrated with colour photographs, diagrams and algorithms
Diagnostic Dermatopathology: A Guide to Ancillary Tests Beyond the
H&E is packed with practical guidance on commonly-faced
diagnostic dilemmas, how the tests described can be used to resolve
them and how to avoid pitfalls in the diagnostic process. The book
is an essential resource for trainee and practicing
dermatopathologists, dermatologists and pathologists seeking an
accessible guide to the diagnostic methods which are increasingly
important in dermatopathology and which go beyond the H&E.
 Key features Covers the full range of diagnostic tests in
dermatopathology, aside from H&E, with a focus on practical
clinical information such as how to run the test, when to use it
and how to interpret the results Includes special stains,
immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, electron microscopy,
molecular testing and point of care tests including potassium
hydroxide preparations, mineral oil preparations, and Tzanck smears
