    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    Written by the researchers who have developed these techniques and the scientists pioneering their use, Virtual Microscopy and Virtual Slides in Teaching, Diagnosis, and Research presents a comprehensive and balanced view of this emerging field, the technology of which is replacing traditional microscopy in many tasks. It begins with a comprehensive introduction to computer and Internet technologies, emphasizing histology and pathology, while reviewing telepathology. What follows is an exploration of the technological solutions currently employed to create and view virtual slides, and an extensive look at how this technology is being used in teaching, research, and diagnosis.

    Long description:

    Despite a brief history, the technologies of virtual microscopy and virtual slides have captured the imagination of many, especially this current crop of students. Having come of age in the computer and Internet age, this emerging group of technicians and researchers tends to display a distinct preference for virtual slides and virtual microscopes. With many pathologists, morphologists, and microscopists already putting the virtual microscope to work, it will soon replace the light microscope as the instrument of choice for many applications.

    Virtual Microscopy and Virtual Slides in Teaching, Diagnosis, and Research is the first volume that specifically deals with virtual microscopy and its various applications. Within its pages, you will find an in-depth presentation of the current state of microscopy, written by those pioneers and experts whose inventions and innovative applications have shaped and will continue to shape this exciting new technology.

    You will also discover complete coverage of a wide range of very real uses for this virtual technology, from applications in teaching, to diagnosis and research; each accompanied by numerous examples.

    Virtual Microscopy and Virtual Slides in Teaching, Diagnosis, and Research will provide you with a clear and complete view of this technology of the future that is already dramatically changing  the way microscopic images are captured, transmitted, evaluated, and stored.

    ?The book is valuable to anyone who wishes to know more about virtual microscopy and essential for institutions that may be choosing among the available virtual microscopy systems. It provides a much needed common ground for all users with definitions, explanations and well described methods of utilization and assessment.?
    ?Dr. A. J. Fales-Williams, Veterinary Pathology
