This project began with the idea to create a cytogenetic
atlas to accompany Dr. Ronald Hoffman’s voluminous text
Hematology
and Dr. Hoffbrand’s Atlas of Hematology. As firsttime
editors, we were not sure what we were doing or where
we were going; however, we reached out to interested junior
colleagues and mentors, and we thought of highlighting the
rich resource of cases at Mount Sinai Icahn School of Medicine
and Tisch Cancer Center presented at our numerous multidisciplinary
tumor boards. What emerged over approximately
two years was a variety and range of chapters, which were then
categorized into factual (text based), case-based, and case-like
formats integrating ancillary work-up as well as diagnostic
algorithms.
Ultimately, the book serves as a short, concise, and informativequick reference to accompany Hoffman’s Hematology:
Basic Principles and Practice. Our intended audience includes
current trainees, medical students, residents, fellows, and junior
to senior clinical and scientific faculty in pathology and hematology/
oncology. The strength is neoplastic hematology/hematopathology
with room for expansion in benign hematology.
Although Dr. Hoffman’s name does not appear on the book, the
editors and authors are rising experts and long-time collaborators
to Dr. Hoffman.
We wish to thank our families for their patience and unwaveringsupport. We also thank our patients and their families;
support staff; clinical and scientific faculty; and current trainees,
students, residents, and fellows for their daily questions,
inquiry, commitment, and continued inspiration.
