Synopsis

The much–awaited new edition of this classic reference manual features the latest on standard and cutting–edge immunological tests and procedures in clinical laboratory immunology. The best features of earlier editions have remained in this update, including a step–by–step interpretive approach to methodology, with emphasis on clinical applications and interpretation. Thoroughly indexed and fully illustrated, this much heralded reference has been called "extraordinarily good value for money" and is clearly the one reference anyone running or working in a diagnostic immunology laboratory or anyone doing clinical immunology research will want to have.

MCLI5 puts more emphasis on the indication for the need of laboratory tests and on their interpretation in a clinical context and less emphasis on methodology. Molecular methods make their debut as alternatives to antibody probes in this new edition. An important theme running through most of the sections is the monitoring of disease and of the newer, immune–based therapies. As the understanding of the immunologic basis of human disease continues to grow at an accelerating rate, this latest edition of this valuable manual endeavors to meet the new challenges and opportunities.
