Reviews
“The authors have produced an updated and comprehensive survey of DLBCL pathologic and clinical information, with perspectives that will be appreciated by clinicians and translational researchers alike. In-depth descriptions of relevant clinical factors, including diagnosis and treatment strategies, paired with relevant clinical trial data, are synthesized into a thorough, informative, and useful guide for the practicing oncologist looking for evidence based and best practice strategies for treating DLBCL.” – Kristy L. Richards, Ph.D. M.D., Associate Professor, Hematology/Oncology, Weill Cornell Medicine, The Sandra and Edward Meyer Cancer Center, NY USA
The book is written for hematologists, oncologists, pathologists, nurses, clinical fellows, and residents. Patients diagnosis with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma will also find the information in the book useful for their treatment.
