Opis

This book provides clinical practitioners and the research community with detailed information on the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, taking into account the significant growth in knowledge including multiple therapeutic advances that have been achieved over the past 5-10 years. The work is subdivided into epidemiology, pathogenesis, pathology, imaging, and therapy of the non-Hodgkin lymphomas. The full range of therapeutic options are examined according to the major subtypes of non-Hodgkin lymphoma and the most up-to-date information is provided on current standard treatment options, including stem cell transplantation as well as new cutting-edge therapeutics.

Recenzje

"The text features a discussion of each characteristic feature of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma ... . The writing in the book is fluent and easy to read, with text that flows well even when dealing with complex arguments, enriched by explanatory images and tables. We can highly recommend this book, not only to experts, but to students and to all clinicians who have an interest in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma." (Sara Pellegrino and Luigi Mansi, European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, Vol. 43, 2016)

"This can serve as a desk-top reference for pathologists who want to know about the imaging features and clinical management of non-Hodgkin lymphomas, and for researchers, radiologists, and hematologists who want to know about pathological diagnostic panels and molecular alterations of different types of non-Hodgkin lymphomas. ... this book provides diligently updated information on the pathological diagnoses, molecular features, gene expression profiles, imaging features, and clinical management of B-cell and T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas." (Peiguo Chu, Doody's Book Reviews, December, 2015)
