The only monograph on cytogenetics for the pathologist, this
up-to-the-minute reference/text contains the most up-to-date
research findings on many important topics in medical
genetics-notably FISH (fluorescent in situ hybridation)-based
molecular cytogenetic technologies and spectral karyotyping. An
excellent resource for cytogeneticists preparing for the certifying
examination in Clinical Cytogenetics offered by the American Board
of Medical Genetics (ABMG). Written by nearly 30 distinguished
international contributors, Medical Cytogenetics -covers the
history of the field, tissue culturing and staining techniques, and
clinical applications of FISH, as well as other methods for genetic
studies and chromosomal analysis -supplies numerous examples and
case reports -examines reproductive dysfunctions such as in-utero
abnormalities, male infertility, and failure to conceive
-investigates chromosomal abnormalities associated with myeloid
hematopoietic disorders, lymphoid neoplasms, and solid tumors such
as those associated with breast cancer -reviews means of obtaining
accreditation or licenses, use of external peer reviews and
voluntary inspections, proficiency testing, and regulatory
oversight -and more! Thoroughly referenced with over 1800
bibliographic citations, and supplemented with a useful glossary, a
large number of practice questions, and over 40 color photographs,
Medical Cytogenetics is a pragmatic, hands-on reference for
pathologists, geneticists, cytogenetic technologists, molecular and
cell biologists, clinical and medical oncologists, hematologists,
neurologists, pediatricians, endocrinologists, obstetricians,
gynecologists, and primary care physicians, and an exceptionaltext
for upper-level undergraduate, graduate, and medical students in
these disciplines.
