Editorial Reviews

5 Stars, 98/100 "This book remains a great tool for board preparation, both for U.S. and Canadian pathology residents. The "Must know, Must see, Must do" sections are a great addition, as they serve as a focus during board preparation. Additionally, the book incorporates many useful tables into the questions. Another excellent feature of is the well-chosen and instructive images, both gross and microscopic... Overall, this book is a must-have for pathology board preparation and I would strongly recommend it."
