This textbook from Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers is an English medium (अंग्रेजी माध्यम) book on Haematology, written by Shirish M Kawthalkar, prepared for MBBS students studying the haematology portion of their pathology course, and also useful for postgraduate students of pathology and medicine, BDS, nursing and medical laboratory technology students, and for laboratory practice. This Fourth Edition treats haematology as a diagnostic discipline rather than a list of diseases — each disorder is approached the way it presents in the laboratory, from the blood count and the peripheral smear (परिधीय रक्त पट) through the bone marrow findings to the confirmatory and molecular investigation, with the interpretation of each result set out in the clinical context of the patient. The book covers haematopoiesis and the normal blood picture, the complete blood count and red cell indices, peripheral smear examination, and then the disorders themselves: iron deficiency, megaloblastic and anaemia of chronic disease, haemolytic and aplastic anaemias, haemoglobinopathies and thalassaemia syndromes, white cell disorders and leucocyte responses, acute and chronic leukaemias, myeloproliferative neoplasms and myelodysplastic syndromes, lymphomas and plasma cell disorders, platelet disorders, bleeding and coagulation abnormalities and thrombophilia, bone marrow aspiration and biopsy with special stains, cytochemistry, immunophenotyping and molecular methods, and transfusion medicine covering blood grouping, cross-matching, component therapy and transfusion reactions. All content, terminology and explanations in this book are presented in the English language only.
