چکیده
companies that supply kits for various procedures. The book can be used as a first source for the pathology resident. The organization of the book is somewhat cumbersome for the ophthalmologist in clinical practice, who would rather look up a chapter on a clinical finding and see which tests should be used and how the laboratory specimen should be collected. This book begins with the tests and discusses disease only in the context of the test. A clinician who is uncertain about the diagnosis in a patient with swelling and injection of the palprebral conjunctiva would need to look at sections on tissue diagnosis in the conjunctiva, microbiology, and perhaps on tumors of the orbit. Only the chapter on uveitis begins with the clinical phenomenon. While this organization is inconvenient, the book does contain valuable and up-to-date information and is well indexed. The directions for specimen collection are perhaps the most useful aspect of the book for the clinician. One contributor states that the majority of diagnostic errors in cytology are due to technical errors in collection rather than to interpretation. A culturette from a patient with ulcerative keratitis or endophthalmitis routinely delivered to the microbiology laboratory would probably grow too few organisms for diagnosis. These samples must be immediately plated and incubated to get a diagnostic yield. In another example, a clinician may collect a tissue sample in ethanol, cold acetone, or Bouin's fixative, depending on which cell markers need to be identified. These directions will help ophthalmologists avoid common pitfalls. Laboratory Diagnosis in Ophthalmology explains laboratory procedures with ample detail for clinicians but perhaps too little detail for pathologists. The book is well illustrated, informative, and up to date, although its organization is better suited to a pathologist than to a clinician. Despite this, the book can be a useful reference for both.
