Genitourinary Radiology: Kidney, Bladder and Urethra: The Pathologic Basis

A book such as this, correlating radiologic findings with the associated gross and microscopic pathologic findings, has never been offered to the medical community. It contains radiologic images, in a variety of formats (ultrasound, CT scan, MRI scan) correlated with gross photos and photomicrographs of a wide spectrum of pathologic entities, including their variants, occurring in the following organs or anatomic sites.

This book would be of particular interest to radiologists and radiologists-in training, who naturally are very cognizant of radiologic abnormalities, but who rarely, if ever, encounter visual images of the pathologic lesions that they diagnose. It will also be of interest to pathologists and pathologists-in-training, urologists, GU radiation oncologists, and GU medical oncologists.

Dr. Gregory T. MacLennan earned his M.D. degree from the University of Manitoba, Canada, in 1971. He spent six years training in General Surgery and Urology at Manitoba Affiliated Teaching Hospitals, and followed this with a fellowship in Urodynamics at St. Peter's Hospitals, London, England. From 1978 until 1989, Dr. MacLennan practiced Urology in Grand Forks, N.D. and progressed from Clinical Instructor to Associate Professor of Surgery at the University of North Dakota School of Medicine. In 1989, he returned to Manitoba Affiliated Teaching Hospitals and spent 5 years in Residency and fellowship training in Anatomic Pathology and Cytopathology. In 1994 he began a Fellowship in Surgical and Genitourinary Pathology at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN. Following his Fellowship, he joined the staff of the Department of Pathology at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1995. Dr. MacLennan is Board certified in both Urology and Anatomic Pathology in both Canada and the United States. Additionally, he is Board certified in Cytopathology. Dr. MacLennan is Professor of Pathology at Case Western Reserve School of Medicine, with secondary appointments in Urology and Oncology. He is the Division Chief of Anatomic Pathology, the Director of the Human Tissue Procurement Facility at University Hospitals of Cleveland, and Director of the Tissue Procurement and Histology Core Facility of the Seidman Cancer Center. Dr. MacLennan has a particular interest in genitourinary pathology. Much of his time is committed to diagnostic surgical pathology and cytopathology. His research has been predominantly clinically oriented, in collaboration with urologists, oncologists and other pathologists, but has also involved collaborations with basic scientists.
