Grossing Bones: Principles, Techniques and Instruments

Grossing Bones: Principles, Techniques and Instruments offers a comprehensive approach to technical issues of grossing calcified specimens. The book includes personal experience of working with a variety of specimens from a femoral head to complicated maxillofacial tumor specimens. With some exaggeration, this author has bragged that there is no bone from which he could not make a decent diagnostically-sound gross section. To achieve this result requires an understanding of the "diamonds in rough" material and the employment of proper instruments rather than skill.
