Clinical Hematology continues to be an industry leader with its ability to correlate basic science with the clinical practice of hematology.
With its strong focus on the clinical aspects of hematology, Clinical Hematology has generated a strong following among internists and general practitioners who want a single resource to consult for their patients who present any blood related disorder.
The Twelfth Edition boasts a new editorial team and includes expanded coverage of new medications and four new chapters on:
- Newborn Anemias
- Pathology of LHC
- Spleen Tumors
- Myeloproliferative Disorders and Mast Cell Disease
A companion Website will offer the fully searchable text and an image bank.
