Excellent illustrations and the latest technology from the clinic, practice and laboratory are compiled for both the practicing urologist and the

researching cytopathologist in the book Urinary Cytology. The completely revised and up-dated text in the new second edition reflects the

first common effort of urologists, pathologists and cytopathologists to find a unified concept: from conventional cytology to electron microscopy toflow cytometry. The authors’ main emphasis is on conveying

practical techniques for the collection, concentration,

fixation, staining and analysis of cellular material. They

clearly discuss the circumstances under which new techniques

are advisable and the relevance of these techniques when difficult

questions of detail arise. At the same time, basic scientific principles arepresented in comprehensible form. The atlas section gives examples of

urologic cytology, compares pathological with normal results, discusses

the problems in differential diagnosis and points the way to solutions.
