Description
About the Book
"Flow Cytometry of Hematological Malignancies contains an array of graphical outputs produced by the technique in the study of the most (and the least) common diseases. The images included allow you to compare your own results with a third party reference pattern. There is a detailed description of the main leukocyte antigens, together with a description of their distribution amongst normal and abnormal blood cells. The book also provides a comprehensive description of the phenotype of every neoplastic blood disease recorded in the WHO classification system, including all the instructions needed to recognise and classify even the least common entity. Designed to be practical, the book is perfect for quick consultation and is divided into two main sections. Section I deals with the direct object of immunophenotyping, and Section II deals with the ultimate target of the analysis. More than 50 antigens are covered and every antigen is dealt with in three main parts: general features, cytometric features and practical hints. This authoritative and state-of-the-art reference will be invaluable for clinicians directly involved in the diagnosis and analysis of hematological diseases, including hematologists, hematopathologists, oncologists, pathologists and technicians working in diagnostic laboratories"--Book Synopsis
Flow Cytometry of Hematological Malignancies bietet eine Vielzahl grafisch aufbereiteter Ergebnisse, die mit der Durchflusszytometrie bei der Untersuchung der häufigsten Erkrankungen gewonnen wurden. Auch weniger bekannte Krankheiten werden vorgestellt. Das Fachbuch wurde als Referenzwerk zum schnellen Nachschlagen konzipiert. Es ist ein Muss für Kliniker, die hämatologische Erkrankungen diagnostizieren und analysieren, darunter Hämatologen, Hämatopathologen, Onkologen, Pathologen und Mitarbeiter in diagnostischen Labors.From the Back Cover
Flow cytometric analysis is often integral to the swift and accurate diagnosis of leukemias and lymphomas of the blood, bone marrow, and lymph nodes. However, in the fast-moving and expanding field of clinical hematology, in can be challenging to remain up to speed with the latest biological research and technological innovations. Flow Cytometry of Hematological Malignancies has been designed to provide all those working in hematological oncology with a practical, cutting-edge handbook, featuring clear and fully illustrated guidance on all aspects of cytometry's role in diagnosis and analysis. This essential second edition includes:
- Explorations of more than 70 antigens
- Full-color illustrations throughout
- New descriptions of recently discovered markers
- WHO classifications of hematological neoplastic diseases
- Helpful tips for result interpretation and analysis
Featuring all this and more, Flow Cytometry of Hematological Malignancies, Second Edition, is an invaluable resource for both trainee and experienced hematologists, hematopathologists, oncologists, and pathologists, as well as medical students and diagnostic lab technicians.
