Opis

TUMOR MARKERS OF ORAL CAVITY represent the tumor markers, an important emerging class of prognostic markers that can be used in the clinical evaluation of cancer patients. The markers reviewed have been chosen because they are biologically relevant to the growth of cells and possess an accurate and reproducible assay for detection. This book is concise and to the point, covering about the classification, ideal criteria, along advantages & disadvantages of tumour markers of the oral cavity. It also offers insight into the approaches to diagnosing cancer and an appreciation of how these marker-based tests can clarify the prognosis of cancer. In the numerous sections of the text we have attempted to accumulate information about the epithelial, mesenchymal, proliferative, biochemical and hormonal markers. The references at the last of the book are very extensive for those who are interested for additional reading. Good review articles with proper terminologies are added in this textbook.
