Handbook of Direct Immunofluorescence: A Pattern-Based Approach to Skin and Mucosal Biopsies is a guide for practicing general pathologists, dermatopathologists, and oral and ophthalmic pathologists who interpret biopsies from patients with inflammatory and blistering disorders requiring direct immunofluorescence examination. This book consists of an introductory section that describes immunofluorescence techniques and protocols, followed by 29 chapters covering the range of conditions which the pathologist or clinician is likely to encounter using direct immunofluorescence examination. Each chapter succinctly describes the clinical presentation, pathogenesis, histopathology, direct immunofluorescence and, when appropriate, indirect immunofluorescence and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays for the specific disorders. Multiple images show the histopathologic and direct immunofluorescence findings of the entities discussed in each chapter. An additional strength of this book is the inclusion of nonspecific direct immunofluorescence findings that are commonly observed in practice. The book will also serve as a resource for clinicians who care for patients with these disorders and trainees who are studying in these fields.
