Abstract

The laboratory has been given a central and distinctive role in science education; science educators have suggested that there are rich benefits in learning the accrue from using laboratory activities. Tissues from the body, taken for diagnosis of disease processes, must be processed in the histology laboratory to produce microscopic slides that are viewed under the microscope by pathologists. The techniques for processing the tissues, whether biopsies, larger specimens removed at surgery, or tissues from autopsy, are varied and the persons who do the tissue processing and make the glass microscopic slides are histotechnologists. While pathologists and cytologists are mainly involved in reporting and interpretation of slides, if the standard criteria for slide preparation are not adhered, this makes the interpretation extremely difficult. As diagnostic personnel, pathologists and cytologists should be aware of all techniques used in the laboratory and have a sound knowledge of the fallacies involved in the preparation. The knowledge of the techniques, which includes processing of specimens, fluids and preparation of these so as to enable them to be transferred to slide material, is all part of the training program for pathologists. The present book deals exhaustively with methods of processing of tissue including fixation, embedding and cutting, staining techniques and an extensive know-how to combat fallacies in these. The recent techniques with regard to molecular pathology are also dealt with in detail. In addition, certain principles of interpretation are also outlined. In fact, the entire book is userfriendly manual for pathologists, cytologists, cyto-and histotechnologists as well as postgraduate students. It has incorporated our vast experience in cyto-and histopathology.
