The past decade has seen a proliferation of research and
publication related to laboratory science and psychiatry. Those
advances are now captured in this revised second edition of
Laboratory Medicine in Psychiatry and Behavioral Science. Backed by
years of clinical practice and research in neuropsychiatry and
informed by literature from the National Library of Medicine as
well as sources such as the American Society of Health-System
Pharmacists Drug Information book, online resources from ARUP
Laboratories, and the American Association for Clinical Chemistry,
this volume is designed to assist psychiatrists and other
behavioral health clinicians in the care of adult psychiatric
patients across a wide range of settings. With the same
comprehensive approach that was a hallmark of the first edition,
this edition features new sections on COVID-19, 22q11.2 deletion
syndrome, and DRESS syndrome, as well as updated descriptions of
• Laboratory tests, from CT angiography and blood alcohol level
to electrocardiograms and a renal function panel • Diseases and
conditions, including Alzheimer's disease, autism spectrum
disorder, HIV and AIDS, and schizophrenia • Screening and
monitoring of psychotropic medications, including benzodiazepines,
fluoxetine, naltrexone, and vardenafil Readers can be confident
that the provided information is relevant to their daily practice:
The included laboratory tests were chosen because they are core for
any patient, are novel in medicine, or are particularly pertinent
to psychiatry or behavioral health. Similarly, the diseases and
conditions described are those for which laboratory tests are
important in diagnosis or differential diagnosis; those that are
common among psychiatric or geriatric patients; and those that have
significant psychiatric, cognitive, or behavioral consequences.
With appendixes that contain algorithms, tables, and figures that
will aid in understanding and interpreting various laboratory tests
and their underlying biology, this volume sets itself apart from
any other reference and is an indispensable resource for anyone in
general psychiatric practice, from trainees to physician assistants
and advanced practice nurses.
