Morphology Glossary.

In this morphology “glossary” are found examples of many of the items discussed in the body of this book. The collection was originally assembled for the Interamerican Division Regional Update in Leukemia course in Puebla, Mexico (Dr. G.J. Ruiz-Argüelles and Dr. E. Torré-Lopez). It has subsequently been used in Ankara, Turkey (Dr. E. Kansu) and Cordoba, Argentina (Dr. C. Ponzinibbio). Developments in informatics have enabled the cost-effective reproduction of these images. The glossary has been rearranged and enlarged since its ASH Education Program introduction—principally with slides used in the Morphology Panel of the ISH Amsterdam congress (Drs. Bain, Brunning, Castoldi, Kluin, Matutes, McArthur, den Ottolander, and Verhoef). It is now divided into four major sections: lymphoid, myeloid, megakaryocytic, and erythroid. Unless otherwise stated, oil magnification of Wright’s-stained smears are shown.
