MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK
Main description:
Providing pathologists with the extensive array of illustrations necessary to understand the morphologic spectrum of interstitial lung disease (ILD), Atlas of Interstitial Lung Disease Pathology: Pathology with High Resolution CT Correlations provides a clear guide to this often confusing and difficult topic. Each chapter touches on the important radiology, clinical, mechanistic, and prognostic features along with numerous illustrations of pathologic findings in a concise, easy-to-follow format.
Packed with over 500 images that clarify the morphologic spectrum of interstitial lung diseases and demonstrate the features of the differential diagnoses, this quick reference will help you:
- Observe and determine if a case shows the diagnostic features of a particular disease.
- Effectively diagnose ILD through detailed illustrations of the pathology and expert coverage of imaging in every chapter.
- Broaden your understanding of uncommon variants of relatively common ILDs; for example, fibrosis in chronic eosinophilic pneumonia (CEP) and in BOOP, interstitial spread of Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), and progression of desquamative interstitial pneumonia (DIP) to a picture of fibrotic nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP).
- Use imaging material to understand the pathologic changes behind the radiologic appearances of ILDs.
- Stresses the team approach necessary for the final diagnosis of interstitial lung diseases

CUSTOMER REVIEWS
'Extremely useful to practicing pathologists is the plethora of high-quality microscopic and radiographic images with well-written descriptions'
'No other reference on ILD, to my knowledge, covers the entities in such a practical manner with so many pictures'
'I highly recommend this book as a quick reference on interstitial lung disease for any practicing surgical pathologist who does not specialize in lung pathology yet occasionally encounters ILD in their practice'
'great job of integrating clinical information with gross descriptions, microscopicexaminations, and radiographic evaluation to come up with the appropriate diagnosis for these very challenging and often confusing cases.'
