Reviews

This is a great addition to liver pathology books. It will be extremely helpful for residents and practicing pathologists who are looking for a book on the practical approach to liver biopsy and resection specimens. The text is descriptive, yet concise and easy to read; the pictures are high quality and the picture legends are helpful in describing the pertinent microscopic details. It is highly recommended for all practicing surgical pathologists Doody's, October 2017
