Tumours of the Central Nervous System (CNS) Integrated Final Diagnosis Reporting Guide

Résumé du livre

Scope: The dataset has been developed for the histological assessment of benign and malignant tumours of the central nervous system (CNS) and its coverings, as well as tumours from those aspects of the peripheral nervous system immediately adjacent to the CNS. This dataset applies to both biopsy and resection specimens. Tumours of the anterior pituitary gland are included. Haematological lesions that may originate in the brain are included. This dataset should be used in conjunction with the "Histological assessment of CNS specimens" and where possible the "Molecular information for CNS specimens" datasets. Reports should incorporate these three datasets into a single layered report format as described below.
