Atlas of thyroid cytopathology on liquid-based preparations : correlation with clinical, radiological, molecular tests and histopathology / Rana S. Hoda, Rema Rao, Theresa Scognamiglio, editors.

This illustrated volume serves as a handy guide to diagnostic fine needle aspiration (FNA) cytology of thyroid on liquid-based preparations (LBP). It is intended to be a ready resource to accurately diagnose thyroid lesions on LBP using key cytomorphologic features. Key cytologic differential diagno...
