Synopsis

This is an illustrated, practical guide to the application of flow cytometry in the identification of malignant cells and diagnosis of haematologic disorders. The first few chapters discuss the basic principles of instrumentation, graph interpretation, and classification of lymphomas and leukaemias. Supplementary tests to flow cytometry are also summarized. From this basis, readers can proceed to the chapter on clinical applications with a firm background. The clinical cases aim to enable the reader to perceive flow cytometry fully. The 34 cases included here cover not only all the common types of lymphomas and leukaemias, but also new entities such as mantle zone lymphomas, splenic lymphoma with villous lymphocytes, and large granular T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder.
