More DescriptionThis volume enables students to master the science and clinical applications of hematologic pathophysiology and develop the problem-solving skills that are needed for exams and clinical rotations. The book provides a solid overview of hematology and applies scientific principles to actual clinical cases and problems. This unique "case-problem" format prepares students to link basic science to clinical medicine as emphasized in today's exams. Using actual patient cases to illustrate hematologic principles, the book covers the life cycles, structures, and physiology of red and white blood cells and then discusses hemostasis, bone marrow disorders, and hematologic malignancies. Boxed case-problems challenge the student to apply key hematologic principles in a variety of clinical decisions. Numerous two-color drawings and schematics illustrate all essential concepts, and subheads, color highlights, and tables aid in comprehension and review.
