Description
SPRINGER PUBLISHING COMPANY Atlas of Pulmonary Cytopathology by Christopher J. VandenBussche Joyce E. Johnson Morgan Cowan & Paul E. Wakely & Syed Ali
Atlas of Pulmonary Cytopathology: With Histopathologic Correlations offers concrete diagnostic guidance for anatomic pathologists to accurately identify pulmonary disease using exfoliative and aspiration techniques. It not only illustrates the cytomorphology of lung specimens, but also presents and contrasts common problem areas that can lead to erroneous interpretation. Clearly and concisely written by leaders in the field, this volume is a practical desk reference for all facets of the diagnostically challenging area of pulmonary cytopathology.The Atlas features nearly 500 carefully selected high-resolution color images detailing important aspects of the full range of lung diseases and conditions including infections, non-neoplasic disorders, benign neoplasms, and malignant tumors such as adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, neuroendocrine tumors, epithelial tumors and malignant mesothelioma, mesenchymal and lymphohistiocytic tumors, as well as metastatic tumors. Additionally, the book's images of the histopathology and gross characteristics of lesions provide morphologic correlations that will be relevant to cytopathologists and surgical pathologists alike. To provide a broader, more enriching perspective, the Atlas features a special chapter on the bronchoscopic characteristics of lung lesions to provide a differential diagnosis through the eyes of an experienced pulmonologist. It also reviews the updated classification guidelines of lung tumors from the World Health Organization (WHO), providing a multidisciplinary approach to enhance the reader's understanding of how cytopathology, histopathology, and bronchoscopic information together create a powerful tool for the prevention and early detection of neoplastic, non-neoplastic, and infectious disease of the lower respiratory tract.Key Features:Provides practical, expert diagnostic guidance for the full range of pulmonary cytopathology Illuminates common diagnostic pitfalls and interpretive errors made in lower respiratory tract specimens Presents nearly 500 high-resolution color images Includes bronchoscopic-pathologic correlations from an expert pulmonologist Section One: Principles of Quantitative ElectroencephalographyChapter 1: Introduction to EEG SpectrogramsQualitative and Quantitative EEG AnalysisOscillations: EEG BackgroundTransients: Brief EEG EventsEvolving Patterns: Long EEG EventsTechnical Considerations: Trade-Offs in Spectral Estimation Detail versus Noise Temporal versus Spectral ResolutionUnderstanding ICU EEG Spectrograms: Cardinal Patterns Regular Flames Choppy Flames Broadband Monotonous (BBM) Narrowband Monotonous (NBM) Stripes Suppressed ArtifactSection Two: Clinical Practice of Quantitative ElectroencephalographyChapter 2: Normal Findings, AwakePosterior Dominant Rhythm Supraharmonic Subharmonic Mu Rhythm Beta Activity Lambda WavesChapter 3: Normal Findings, Drowsiness & SleepHypnagogic Hypersynchrony Stage II Sleep Frontocentral Beta Activity Slow Roving Eye Movements Positive Occipital Sharp Transients Vertex Waves Sleep Spindles K Complexes Mittens Rapid Eye Movement SleepChapter 4: Benign Variants14 6 Positive Spikes 6Hz Phantom Spike WaveWaking, High Amplitude, Male (WHAM) Female, Old, Low Amplitude, Drowsiness (FOLD) Atypical Wicket WavesSmall Sharp Spikes Rhythmic Midtemporal Theta Activity of Drowsiness (RMTD) Ciganek Rhythm Sawtooth Waves Subclinical Rhythmic Electroencephalographic Discharges of Adults (SREDA)Chapter 5: Activation ProceduresHyperventilation Occipital Driving Asymmetric Visual Evoked Potentials Subharmonic Photomyoclonic Response Photoparoxysmal ResponsePhotoconvulsive ResponseChapter 6: Interictal Abnormalities, SlowingFocal Temporal Frontal Central Occipital Generalized Alpha Coma Spindle Coma Theta Coma Electrocerebral InactivityChapter 7: Interictal Abnormalities, Sporadic DischargesTemporal Frontal Centroparietal Occipital Rolandic MultifocalChapter 8: Ictal, Seizure(s)Temporal Frontal Centroparietal Occipital Hemispheric Paroxysmal Fast Activity Generalized Tonic-ClonicAbsence, Typical Absence, Atypical Myoclonic Slow Spike & Wave ElectrodecrementalChapter 9: Ictal, Status EpilepticusChapter 10: The Interictal-Ictal Continuum, Rhythmic Delta Activity (RDA)Lateralized (LRDA) Generalized (GRDA) Bilateral Independent (BI-LRDA) Multifocal (MF-RDA)Chapter 11: The Interictal-Ictal Continuum, Periodic Discharges (PD)Lateralized (LPD) Generalized (GPD) Bilateral Independent (BIPD) Multifocal (MF-PD)Chapter 12: The Interictal-Continuum, Triphasic Modifier ( TW)Chapter 13: The Interictal-Ictal Continuum, Spike-Wave (SW)Lateralized (LSW)Section 3: Artifacts in Quantitative ElectroencephalographyChapter 14: Non-Cerebral Quantitative Electroencephalographic ArtifactsAlternating CurrentBreach RhythmCardioballisticChest PercussionElectrocardiogramElectroretinogramElectrodeEye BlinkingGlossokineticMyogenicNystagmus Lateral RotationalOcular BobbingPacemakerPulseRespiratorShiveringSnoringSweatingTwitchingVagal Nerve StimulatorVentilator
