As a professional working in the frontlines of tissue diagnosis and in everyday practice, you need a reference that gives you practical information in an easy-to-use format. Containing over 300 photographs, micrographs, and line drawings, including over 60 color illustrations, Color Atlas of Nerve Biopsy Pathology supplies a clear picture of commonly used techniques for nerve biopsies. You get new diagnostic techniques and clinicopathological correlations all in a framework designed for quick reference and easy learning. Providing all the practical information you need from A to Z, Color Atlas of Nerve Biopsy Pathology describes how to: ¡¤ perform a nerve biopsy ¡¤ handle specimens ¡¤ process the nerve by frozen sections, by paraffin sections, and by semi-thin sections The book delineates the general pathological features of peripheral nerve disorders and the diagnostic capability and limitations of the nerve biopsy. It details the typical pathological features of each disease by presenting color photographs and example cases that provide a brief clinical history and pertinent electrophysiological and other laboratory data. The exhaustively illustrated color format provides you with immediate information in reaching a definitive diagnosis. Unlike other books on this subject, this one contains frozen section materials, case histories, teased nerve illustrations, and newly described neuropathies. The author brings twenty-five years of experience in the lab and teaching to the development of this atlas. In the lab or in the classroom, on the front lines of tissue diagnosis, Color Atlas of Nerve Biopsy Pathology provides you with the information you need clearly, concisely, and conveniently.

Review:
Excellent review of nerve pathology.

As a pathology resident and neuropathology fellow I find this book to be extremely helpful. It is one of the very few and more recent published books available in this area with numerous high-quality pictures and sufficient information about a broad variety of nerve diseases. The text is well written, clear and concise, and more importantly, easy to read. The book is very useful for the pathologist trying to introduce the techniques of sural nerve biopsy in the laboratory. It goes over the biopsy procedure, histological processing, staining fresh-frozen and paraffin sections, processing the nerve for semithin and electron microscopy sections. It also talks about the nerve fiber teasing procedure. It is an excellent resource for concise summaries of the clinicopathological correlation hallmarks including electrophysiological findings of a wide variety of conditions explained based on several cases for each chapter, making this book a good resource for neurology residents and fellows. In addition, there are a number of handy summary tables in each section. The overall layout of the book is clear and visually appealing. I strongly recommend this book for those seeking knowledge in nerve pathology and clinical correlations.

Review:
Interesting and Educational!

I enjoyed "reading" and "studying" Dr. Oh's book, "Color Atlas of Nerve Biopsy Pathology" very much. This book provides very useful information to every neurophysiologist and neuropathologist for daily practice. In fact, I learned practical tips on obtaining nerve specimens and nerve fiber teasing, and on interpretation of nerve biopsy from this book. Compared with other books on nerve biopsy, this book provides rich information with many clinically oriented example-cases on various neuropathies, such as vasculitic neuropathy, demyelinating neuropathy, toxic neuropathy etc. We can first study case presentation of a brief clinical history and electrophysiological findings, followed by case analysis, nerve biopsy, finial diagnosis and author's comments. During the reading, from clinical presentation to final diagnosis, I enjoyed "learning" and "experiencing" the process of diagnosis with Dr. Oh. Many tips on neuropathy written in the book should be worthwhile to every neurologist for everyday practice.
I strongly recommend "reading", "studying" and "purchasing" this book.

Review:
Unique!

Dr. Oh's book does provide basic concepts that every pathologist and neurologist should know about nerve biopsy. In fact, this is the only color atlas book available with up-to-date informations regarding nerve biopsy, nerve teasing and semithin sections. It provides comprehensive understanding of the various topics from the nerve biopsy procedure to the interpretation.
There is also a clinico-pathological correlation of cases commonly encountered in the clinical practice, which is rarely observed in other books. Language is easy to read. Dr. Oh, with his wide experience, was able to collect hundreds of pictures with varying examples from normal biopsies to the most interesting diseases.
Among the various books which attempted to address the same issues, I found Dr Oh's book most informative and clinically oriented. I enjoyed reading it and learned many caveats on the nerve pathology. I strongly recommend it.

Review:
nerve pathology

This book is an attempt to provide an overview of peripheral neve pathology using color light microscopy photomicrographs of frozen, paraffin, and, to a very limited degree, semithin and teased nerve fiber preparations. I will not attempt to comment on the anecdotal clinical cases nor on the electrodiagnostic data provided. From a pathology standpoint, this book by Dr. Oh (not editor) falls far short of its goal. Ignoring the troubling misspellings, inadequately referenced and often controversial statements, figure and legend miscorrelations, and illustrations of tissues other than nerve there are numerous errors in the pathology. Space precludes a thorough review. A most troubling recommendation is that the freshly biopsied nerve is allowed to autolyze for 15 minutes, apparently at room temperature, "for reducing contraction artifact". Lacking contractile elements, nerves do not contract. They are very susceptable to autolysis, crush artifact, and fixation artifact such as shrinkage from hypertonic fixative. The illustrations contain, apparently nwittingly, many of these artifacts partly resulting from the recommended techniques. The preferred preparation for analysis, frozen sections, are cut at 10 microns. Since most of the fine endoneurial structures of interest are considerably smaller than 10 microns, much of the finer details are difficult to analyze at this thickness. This is one reason why 1 micron plastic sections are the standard preparations, supplimented with well fixed 3 micron paraffin sections to facilitate study of elements less obvious in plastic. There are many errors in histological identification and a number of photographs are out of focus. The index is very incomplete. I found it very unpleasant to review this book, and cannot recommend it.
