Product Description
The Bethesda System for reporting the results of cervical cytology was developed as a uniform system of terminology, providing clear guidance for clinical management. The Bethesda System 2001 Workshop was convened to evaluate and update the 1991 Bethesda System terminology for reporting the results of cervical cytology. The New Edition has been extensively updated and revised to reflect the new Bethesda System. The new terminology reflects important advances in biological understanding of cervical neoplasia and cervical screening technology. The handbook has now been expanded to include more than 185 full color illustrations (twice the number of color images than in the 1st edition). New to the Second Edition are sections that address ancillary testing, including HPV, the inclusion of educational notes and recommendations, computerized screening, and anal cytology, as well as sample reports. In line with recent advances, the text and images will address liquid-based cytology in addition to conventional cytology. In addition to its user-friendly, outline format, the inclusion of an Index will allow the reader easier access to the information. A must-have for pathologists, cytopathologists, pathology residents, cytotechnologists, and clinicians.

 The Bethesda System for Reporting Cervical Cytology
I found the cheapest current edition of this text. Overall the book was in good condition but appeared alittle used. There were some scuffs, stains and a large fold on the back cover. I am guessing that is why this book was discounted. Just wish it would have been mentioned.

concise and graphically great
This small handbook is a great start for a new cytotech to have closeby. Affordable,concise in text with classic cytology examples in clear photographs. A great basic companion.

 Bethesda ( ra99edyann )
Much used and needed book if you are going into the cytology field. Clear, concise, in a 1lb book, what more can students ask for?

It simplified the reporting system of exfoliative cytology.
The Bethesda System for Reporting Cervical/Vaginal Cytologic Diagnoses has greatly simplified and standardized the nomenclature for reporting the spectrum of pathologic as well as non-pathologic conditions of the cervix and vagina. The pictures are helpful, although it would have helped more if there are more than one picture for every condition to show the spectrum of any said condition. This would help guide the cytotechnologists/cytopathologists in naming, reporting the condition. What is exemplary in the system is its integration of the reporting of the adequacy of the specimen. This has a lot of impact in the clinical corelation as well as alerting the physicians of the possible limitations of the diagnosis. All in all, it is a well made system.
