The extremely popular textbook Immunology & Serology in Laboratory Medicine, 8th Edition provides the foundation you need to master the relevant competencies demanded in today's clinical laboratory. Immunology & Serology helps you gain the knowledge required by medical laboratory technician (MLT) and medical laboratory scientist (MLS) students to achieve excellent scores on national board certification upon graduation and to display entry-level professional competencies for career success. Featuring a straightforward presentation, each chapter in this edition presents state-of-the-art content in subject areas such as Molecular Diagnostics. A problem-based case study approach that stimulates critical thinking makes it easier to integrate the concepts of theory with laboratory procedures that generate diagnostic information in cases of infectious diseases, immune disorders, tumor immunology, and tissue transplantation. Immunology & Serology is a distinctly unique textbook because the author recognizes the importance of robust professional knowledge and the practice guidelines developed by the American Society for Clinical Pathology (ASCP) Board of Certification Examination Immunology Content Outlines for MLT and MLS certification levels and the American Society for Clinical Laboratory Science (ASCLS) Professional Body of Knowledge. NEW! Updated content includes the most current information related to infectious and immunological diseases, diagnostic testing methods, and vaccines. Clinical case studies include etiology, pathophysiology, laboratory findings, and critical thinking questions, allowing you to apply your knowledge of concepts and procedures. Visual learning features make studying easier with algorithms, illustrations, photographs, and summary boxes. Key Concepts are interwoven throughout each chapter, highlighting the most important facts. Content correlation between lecture and reading, diagnostic laboratory procedures, and case studies allows for easy reference. Learning objectives and key terms open each chapter, providing measurable outcomes and a framework for organizing your study efforts. More than 650 end-of-chapter, multiple-choice questions provide opportunities for review and self-assessment. Laboratory procedures on the Evolve website and in the eBook help you apply immunology and serology theory to clinical laboratory practice.
