DESCRIPTION
Recognized as the definitive reference in laboratory medicine since 1908, Henry's Clinical Diagnosis continuesto offer state-of-the-art guidance on the scientific foundation and clinical applicationof today's complete rangeof laboratory tests. Employing a multidisciplinary approach, it presentsthe newest information available in the field, including new developmentsin technologies and the automationplatforms on which measurements are performed.
Key Features
Provides guidanceon error detection, correction, and prevention, as well as cost-effective test selection.
Features a full-color layout, illustrationsand visual aids, and an organization based on organ system.
New to this Edition
Expert ConsulteBook version included with purchase. This enhanced eBook experience allows you to searchall of the text, figures, images, and references from the book on a variety of devices.
Features the latestknowledge on cutting-edge technologies of molecular diagnostics and proteomics.
Includes a wealthof information on the excitingsubject of omics; these extraordinarily complex measurements reflect important changes in the body and have the potential to predict the onset of diseases such as diabetes mellitus.
Coverage of today'shottest topics includes advances in transfusion medicine and organ transplantation; molecular diagnosticsin microbiology and infectiousdiseases; point-of-care testing; pharmacogenomics;and the microbiome.
Toxicology and TherapeuticDrug Monitoring chapter discusses the necessity of testing for therapeuticdrugs that are more frequently being abused by users.
