What's New

Incorporates the impact of molecular pathology throughout, including new advances in haematology, microbiology, parentage and identity testing, as well as genetic counselling.
Explores hot topics such as new testing for the early detection of cancer * assisted reproductive technology * stem cell technology and tissue banking * immunodeficiency disorders * molecular pathology of infectious disease * diagnostic array technology * forensic DNA analysis * and more.
Includes expanded discussions of Polymerase Chain Reaction and other amplification methods * diagnostic array technology * the increased sensitivity and specificity that molecular pathology techniques have brought to cytogenetics * and the incorporation of molecular techniques into the standard of practice in microbiology.
Features current information on establishing and running a molecular diagnostics laboratory--thoroughly updated to reflect the stringent new regulations in the U.S. and abroad.
