Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Subset of Goljian's Pathology
Don't buy both Lab Testing in Clinical Medicine and Pathology from the Rapid Review series since all of the Lab Testing info is in the Pathology edition.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Rapid Review Laboratory Testing
I have enjoyed reading through this book. It is very similar to Goljan's other book, but in addition this book provides better explanations of important pathology terms, and test done to diagnose patients.
If you plan to use this book during Basic Sciences, I recommend using it as a supplement to a more substantial book.
If you plan to use this book to review for STEP 1 I would recommend that you use it only if you have enough time (more than a 2 months to study).





Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - great resource
excellent resource with clinical correlations. very similar to Goljan's pathology review but more in depth with lab tests



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent quick review
Excellent charts with pathological and clinical correlation of the lab findings. Exemplar examples of types of illnesses/pathologic processes expected with each lab test.
