Publisher Comments:

Written by clinicians and scientists at the National Institutes of Health and other leading institutions, the Bethesda Handbook of Clinical Hematology is a concise, complete hematology handbook designed for quick bedside consultation. The book covers all hematologic disorders and provides residents, fellows, and practitioners with need-to-know information on pathophysiology, natural history, risk factors, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up. Coverage includes chapters on consultative hematology, pregnancy-induced disorders, transfusion, stem cell transplantation, DNA studies, and interpretation of standard laboratory tests, clinical flow data, and molecular biology tests.
