Produktinformationen zu „Biomedical Sciences “
Biomedical Sciences is an indispensable, all encompassing core textbook for first/ second year biomedical science students that will support them throughout their undergraduate career. The book includes the key components of the IBMS accredited degree programmes, plus sections on actual practice in UK hospital laboratories (including the compilation of a reflective portfolio).
The book is visually exciting, and written in an interesting and accessible manner while maintaining scientific rigour. Highlighted boxes within the text link the theory to actual clinical laboratory practice for example, the histopathology chapter includes a photographically illustrated flow chart of the progress of a specimen through the histopathology lab, so that students can actually see how the specimen reception/inking/cut-up/cassette/block/section/stain system works, with an emphasis on the safety procedures that ensure specimens are not confused).

As the practice of clinical medicine and the diagnosis and management of human disease becomes more complex, there is an ever greater need for well-trained, highly skilled biomedical scientists: the professionals who perform the vital laboratory tests and investigations that underpin the diagnosis of disorders and the evaluation of the effectiveness of treatment.
This textbook provides a clinically focused resource that students can use at all levels of their study and career progression in biomedical science. After an overview of the anatomy and physiology of major organ systems, individual chapters cover those aspects of science that are relevant to the clinical laboratory: pathophysiology; clinical cell biology and genetics; cellular pathology; clinical chemistry; medical microbiology; clinical immunology; haematology and transfusion science, and it concludes with a chapter on professional practice.
Key Features:
- A single volume resource written specifically for biomedical science students.
- Clinically focused, covering the science that is relevant to the working laboratory.
- Clearly written and well-presented with numerous illustrations in full colour throughout.
By focusing on clinical relevance and including contributions from practising biomedical scientists, this book gives a sense of what happens at the bench in the working clinical laboratory. It will therefore prove invaluable to all students of laboratory medicine and particularly those pursuing a dedicated career in this exciting and dynamic profession.s cover those aspects of science that are relevant to the clinical laboratory: pathophysiology; clinical cell biology and genetics; cellular pathology; clinical chemistry; medical microbiology; clinical immunology; haematology and transfusion science, and it concludes with a chapter on professional practice.
