Infectious diseases may be encountered in nearly every aspect of pathology. This atlas provides an informative reference for the identification of the common and esoteric pathogens, presenting in a wide array of specimen types. The focus of the presented images is on the hematoxylin and eosin-stained appearances of these infections and highlight common special stains that can be used to aid in the diagnosis of the infectious agent.  Where appropriate, commentary regarding additional testing such as immunohistochemistry and molecular-based methods is supplied.  
The Atlas of Infectious Disease Pathology is organized primarily by pathogen type followed by discussion of the various manifestations that may occur in individual organ systems. The reader will be provided with a comprehensive overview of the histopathology of the majority of infectious diseases encountered in general and subspecialty practice alike. 

Atlas of Infectious Disease Pathology 1st Table of contents:

1. Introduction to Infectious Disease Pathology

• Basic principles of pathology in infectious diseases
• Overview of pathogens (bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites)
• Pathogenesis of infections and host responses

2. Bacterial Infections

• Pathology of common bacterial infections (e.g., tuberculosis, pneumonia, abscesses)
• Diagnostic features of bacterial diseases under the microscope
• Special sections on bacterial sepsis, meningitis, and gastrointestinal infections

3. Viral Infections

• Pathology of viral infections, including influenza, HIV, hepatitis, and herpesvirus
• Features of viral inclusion bodies, cytopathic effects, and tissue damage
• Diagnostic considerations in viral infections

4. Fungal Infections

• Pathology of systemic fungal infections (e.g., candidiasis, aspergillosis, histoplasmosis)
• Microscopic appearance of fungi in tissue samples
• Diagnosis and clinical correlation of fungal diseases

5. Parasitic Infections

• Pathology of parasitic infections (e.g., malaria, leishmaniasis, toxoplasmosis)
• Diagnostic identification of parasites in tissues or body fluids
• Lesions and tissue responses to parasitic invasions

6. Infections of Specific Organs and Systems

• Respiratory Infections: Pneumonia, tuberculosis, viral infections like influenza
• Gastrointestinal Infections: Gastroenteritis, enteric infections, helminths, and protozoa
• Central Nervous System Infections: Meningitis, encephalitis, brain abscesses
• Cardiovascular Infections: Endocarditis, vascular infections, and their pathological features
• Renal Infections: Pyelonephritis, renal abscesses, and glomerulonephritis

7. Infections in Immunocompromised Hosts

• Pathology of infections in HIV/AIDS patients, organ transplant recipients, and those on immunosuppressive therapy
• Opportunistic infections and their impact on organ systems

8. Emerging Infectious Diseases

• Pathology of emerging diseases (e.g., Zika, Ebola, COVID-19)
• Mechanisms of disease transmission and tissue involvement

9. Special Techniques in Infectious Disease Pathology

• Overview of diagnostic techniques such as histopathology, immunohistochemistry, PCR, and culture methods
• Role of molecular diagnostics and imaging in identifying infectious agents

10. Case Studies and Pathological Features

• Case presentations with images to demonstrate common and rare infectious diseases
• Histological and clinical correlation for diagnosis
