Contemporary Practice in Clinical Chemistry, Fourth Edition, provides a clear and concise overview of important topics in the field. This new edition is useful for students, residents and fellows in clinical chemistry and pathology, presenting an introduction and overview of the field to assist readers as they in review and prepare for board certification examinations. For new medical technologists, the book provides context for understanding the clinical utility of tests that they perform or use in other areas in the clinical laboratory. For experienced laboratorians, this revision continues to provide an opportunity for exposure to more recent trends and developments in clinical chemistry.

Dr. William Clarke is a Professor of Pathology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. His research focuses on the development of analytical methods for drug analysis, clinical mass spectrometry, and devices for point-of-care testing. He serves as the director of Clinical Toxicology for Johns Hopkins Hospital, as well as the Point-of-Care Testing Program for Johns Hopkins Medicine.

Dr. Mark Marzinke is Associate Professor of Pathology and Medicine at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. Dr. Marzinke serves as the Director of General Chemistry in the Johns Hopkins Hospital Core Laboratories, and is the Director of the Clinical Pharmacology Analytical Laboratory within the Division of Clinical Pharmacology. He is also Co-Director of the HIV Prevention Trials Network Laboratory Center.
