Immunocytochemistry in Diagnostic Cytology (Paperback)

Cytology refers to a branch of pathology that deals with making diagnoses of diseases and conditions through the examination of tissue samples from the body (MedicineNet.com). Immunocytochemistry is a laboratory method that uses antibodies to check for certain antigens (markers) in a sample of cells. The antibodies are usually linked to an enzyme or a fluorescent dye. After the antibodies bind to the antigen in the cell sample, the enzyme or dye is activated, and the antigen can then be seen under a microscope. Immunocytochemistry is used to help diagnose diseases, such as cancer. It may also be used to help tell the difference between different types of cancer (National Cancer Institute). This book is a comprehensive guide to the techniques and application of immunocytochemistry in cytology. Divided into two parts, the first section discusses basic principles and preparation, techniques and quality control, and automated immune staining. Section Two covers diagnostic applications of immunocytochemistry for many different types of tumour. The text is highly illustrated with microphotographs, tables and boxes to assist learning and interpretation of findings for accurate diagnosis. Key points Comprehensive guide to techniques and application of immunocytochemistry in cytology Provides thorough understanding of basic principles and methods Covers diagnostic applications for many different types of tumour Highly illustrated with microphotographs, tables and boxes
