Preface to the Second Edition
In this second edition of the book, I have introduced two new chapters on round cell tumors and infections. The newer classifications of diseases and molecular genetics have been provided. In each chapter, I have added review questions along with multiple figures. Many old figures have been either replaced or deleted. Overall, I have changed many chapters. I am sure that this will help the readers significantly.
Pranab Dey
Preface to the First Edition
Cytology is an integral part of pathology curriculum and it is very important to have working knowledge in this area. I designed this book in four sections: general cytology, clinical cytology (exfoliative cytology), laboratory techniques in cytology and fine needle aspiration cytology. I hope that this present book will help immensely all the postgraduate students in pathology, students of cytology (both BSc and MSc), cytology practitioners and all others who are interested in clinical cytology. I have tried to explain various areas of cytology by simple language, tables and illustrations (both line diagrams and microphotographs). All the line diagrams are drawn by me. I hope that these figures are satisfactory. There are multiple boxes in this book which convey the essential and important messages. I will be glad if this book is helpful to the students, teachers and practitioners of cytology.
Pranab Dey
Acknowledgments
I am grateful to Mr Jitendar P Vij (Group Chairman) and Ms Chetna Malhotra Vohra (Associate Director—Content Strategy) of Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers, for their great support and encouragement in writing the second edition of this book. Mr Subrata Adhikari (Commissioning Editor), Ms Kritika Dua (Development Editor) and the other members of the publishing team also provided me full support and advice during the preparation of the manuscript.
It is my great pleasure to express my thanks to Professor Arvind Rajwanshi, Head, Department of Cytology, Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh, India. I am also thankful to my departmental colleagues for their routine support. My friend, Dr Suvradeep Mitra helped me to rethink in many aspects of general cytology. I am especially thankful to Dr Manish Rohilla. He thoroughly read the first edition of the book and corrected many chapters and gave me valuable suggestions. My friend, Dr Chandrasekaran Muralidharan taught me the principle of many newer techniques in cytology. My sincere thanks to Mr Ghanashyam Mahato, assistant librarian of Browser library, for helping me to provide many important references.
I am thankful to all my junior residents, senior residents and technical staffs in the Department of Cytology. My wife Rini and daughter Madhumanti provided me constant support and encouragement in writing this book.
Finally, I am grateful to God Almighty for His blessing to make this book successful.
