The Tietz Textbook has been a staple in my life for decades. Exciting to see the 7th edition in print; it is an excellent resource for all things lab medicine! Big thanks to all the authors, editors, and reviewers for making this happen! @_AACC @ElsevierConnect

Please spare a thought for all the NHS lab staff who have processed millions and millions of tests over the past two years. These people never get a mention, but they have worked tirelessly and helped save thousands of lives.
