Colorectal Tumors

Reviews


"Superbly illustrated atlas...composed of remarkable, full page color images...I am not aware of any other atlas that so beautifully illustrates this method. ...Photographs in this atlas are excellent to visualize the anatomy. ..A useful atlas to have any department playing host to junior trainees who are still building confidence with dissection."--Histopathology

"This is a beautifully produced atlas...The illustrations are of exceptional quality and of particular value in understanding tumor spread... This novel publication focuses on large section histopathology making pathology much more accessible, and would be of value to radiologists, oncologists, and surgeons in particular. The book would be an excellent adjunct for the teaching of colorectal pathology in a wide rande of clinical settings, including to undergraduates. [The book] is highly recommended for any radiologist with an interest in colorectal cancer and the correlation between imaging and pathology. The quality of the images justifies the expense [of the book]. It would be a worthy addition to any medical imaging departmental library."--RAD Magazine

"Using large histologic sections, including representative transections of entire tumors in their anatomic environments, all the physicians involved in diagnosis or treatment can better type tumors and stage according to TNM criteria." --SciTech Book News

"This book provides an excellent reference for those who are striving to understand colorectal tumor behavior and gain a more complete morphologic understanding of TNM staging. This book is a departure from the typical picture atlas in that it provides a brief review of the topic using case reports and whole mount slide images to illustrate relevant pathology. This book would make a useful resource for pathology trainees and endoscopists interested in correlating their gross findings with the microscopic pathology. While the majority of the information is geared towards those pursuing a more basic understanding of colorectal tumor histology and staging, anyone interested in learning more about the benefits of large section histopathology would find this atlas useful. This atlas is an excellent educational resource and I have no doubt that the next time I need to explain TNM staging to someone, I'll turn to this book to illustrate those concepts in a unique way that is sure to facilitate understanding."--Doody's Book Reviews
