Summary:The main focus of this book is to provide an overview of the principles of molecular diagnostics in context of cytopathology specimens together with a basic understanding and working knowledge of the available technology, platforms, and clinical applications. The initial sections of the book summarize the pre-analytic aspects of molecular testing, including cytology specimen preparation and handling, specimen selection and evaluation, and workflow algorithms as well as the analytic considerations for a variety of nucleic acid and protein-based testing. The remaining section focuses on disease specific molecular testing for various organ-based applications. Molecular Diagnostics in Cytopathology: A Practical Handbook for the Practicing Pathologist serves as a useful resource for cytopathologists, surgical pathologists, molecular technologists, and all others dealing with the evolving field of molecular cytopathology.
