内容説明

Recent advances in molecular biology have led to the beginnings of an understanding of the molecular origins of malignancy. This understanding has practical relevance in the development of new screening methods in oncology. Methods such as oncogene amplification, gene rearrangement and aberrant receptor expression are now all used as markers of malignancy. It is hoped that this new understanding may soon be applied to the treatment of patients with malignancy. This book presents experimental and clinical developments in a way that is accessible for those involved in the treatment of malignant disease.
