Preface to the Second Edition

I authored an exhaustive book entitled “Medical Laboratory Technology – Methods and Interpretations” that hit the stands

in mid-eighties in the previous century and is now running in its 6th edition. This was the first such book in the subcontinent and was much appreciated and used by technologists and pathologists alike. The book has seen testimonies in courts

and has been appreciated in the west too. However, in our subcontinent, I was requested by many technologists that they

wanted a little younger sister of the book popularly known as MLT authored by me.

And so was born the Concise Book of Medical Laboratory Technology: Methods and Interpretations. The book essentially

covers everything presented in MLT-6 but in an abridged/shortened and easy-to-digest format. The book is presented in

a flowing noninterrupted format and not in a cumbersome experiment-wise cascading flow. There is no break in the style

that runs smoothly and is easier to absorb and assimilate. As experiments are a part of any course, more stress has been

laid out in the book to understand the intricacies of relevant theories and even troubleshooting all experiments that you

would conduct during the course of your study. As I have written multiple modules for many Universities in India, I did not

have to think for too long to devise a style and format for this book. You will find everything from ESR to PCR and you will

find foam test for bile pigments as also complete automation in urinalysis. You will find basic biochemistry as also detailed

cytogenetics. So whatever be your course or query, you will find it within the covers of this short but sweet book now going

into its second edition.

The book is designed for you not to mug but to understand and elicit the answers from the book of all questions in your

mind. I am aware that this book is used by most of your teachers and tutors too.

Nothing wrong that you are holding now. It will help you all your life!
