Immunohistochemistry and biomarkers for targeted tumor therapy -- Chapter 33. Markers to assist in the diagnosis of dysplasia and malignant transformation -- Chapter 34. Recommendations for the utility of immunohistochemical results in tumor diagnosis.
Summary: This new and updated edition provides an extensive overview of the antibodies employed in diagnostic tumor histopathology, and it presents concise summaries of the immunoprofiles of most tumors. Additionally, it offers practical diagnostic algorithms and invaluable tips to facilitate the interpretation of results. The work includes the newest available antibodies and the most recent 5th edition of the WHO classification of tumors. Furthermore, a chapter on biomarkers for theranostic applications has been added to enhance the book's utility. Designed as a practical and user-friendly bench reference for diagnostic tumor histopathology, this book is recommended to histopathologists of all levels, from aspiring residents to seasoned specialists seeking a reliable and comprehensive resource for tumor diagnostics. Moreover, it is highly recommended for oncologists, hematologists, and researchers involved in these fields.
