Practical Differential Diagnosis in Surgical Neuropathology

Prayson (anatomic pathology, Cleveland Clinic Foundation) and Cohen (pathology, Case Western Reserve U.) present a guide to the more commonly encountered diagnostic problems in surgical neuropathology. They focus on the differential diagnosis of the most common neuropathological entities encountered by general surgical pathologists. Information is provided on how to work with very small amounts of tissues, decide difficult situations where everything looks the same, and cope with inoperative calculations when time is short and sample preparations are less than ideal.
