Description for Atlas of Human Chromosome Heteromorphisms
Hardback. Provides a comprehensive view of human chromosome heteromorphisms, their applications, and their often speculated roles in aberrant chromosome behaviour relating to abnormal phenotype, pregnancy loss and cancer. This book is a pictorial atlas for common and unusual heteromorphisms and euchromatic variants. Editor(s): Wyandt, Herman E.; Tonk, Vijay S. Num Pages: 299 pages, biography.

Critical to the accurate diagnosis of human illness is the need to distinguish clinical features that fall within the normal range from those that do not. That distinction is often challenging and not infrequently requires considerable experience at the bedside. It is not surprising that accurate cytogenetic diagnosis is also often a challenge, especially when chromosome study reveals morphologic findings that raise the question of normality. Given the realization that modern human cytogenetics is just over five decades old, it is noteworthy that thorough documentation of normal chromosome var- tion has not yet been accomplished.
