You can throw away your baby Robbins now...:
This is a very handy book to have on hand as you're reviewing slides, and trying to come up with a complete and useful diagnosis. It gives all the pertinent information you need to get the job done including diagnostic features, staging and grading. As it fits in your pocket, it's a nice quick reference to have as you're signing out, and is much more useful than baby Robbins.
Don't hesitate to buy it!!:
I liked this book very much. It is small in size but has a great fund of UPDATED knowledge. It doesn't have pictures or images in its printed format because I think the authors want to make the size of the book small to be handy and not heavy :-). It fits into the pocket of your lab coat. They put all the images in an electronic image bank. I liked the text part of the book as it is very comprehensive and contains the information I need on the sign out and when I want to check for some information quickly.... more info
Well put together:
Get this.....especially if you are studying for boards (either USMLE or path boards). A great tool to have at the scope side. Make sure you register for the web site...the image bank alone is worth the price and the entire text is available online.
