Practical Surgical Neuropathology A Diagnostic Approach A Volume in the Pattern Recognition Series 2nd Edition

Part of the in-depth and practical Pattern Recognition series, Practical Surgical Neuropathology, 2nd Edition, by Drs. Arie Perry and Daniel J. Brat, helps you arrive at an accurate CNS diagnosis by using a pattern-based approach.
