Manual of Clinical Laboratory Immunology

by Noel R. Rose (Editor), Barbara Deetrick, Robert G. Hamilton

Featuring the latest on standard and cutting-edge immunological tests and procedures in clinical laboratory immunology, the much-anticipated sixth edition of the Manual of Clinical Laboratory Immunology (MCLI) reflects the continued evolution of clinical immunology.

Considered the "bible" of the clinical immunology laboratory, MCLI6 provides an up-to-date description of the methods used in the clinical laboratory for diagnosis and monitoring of immunemediated and autoimmune diseases, transplantation rejection, and cancer. The best features of earlier editions have remained in this update, including a step-by-step interpretive approach to methodology, with emphasis on the practical issues and pitfalls in performing laboratory procedures, the appropriate indication, and the interpretation of results.

Throrughly indexed and fully illustrated, this much-heralded reference has been called "a clear reflection of the practice of clinical laboratory immunology" (Current Microbiology).
