Students find this guide a clear and useful introduction to the fundamentals of interpreting lab test results. Practitioners value its help in assessing patient responses to drug treatment. Since the publication of previous editions, much has changed—in the clinical lab and in the hospital pharmacy.

  • Learning points at the end of each chapter focus on a single application of a major concept.
  • Three new chapters include new information on women’s health, men’s health, and pharmacogenomics and laboratory tests.
