Expression of Cell Differentiation Antigens as a Prognostic Factor in Acute Leukemia

  • Conference paper
Modern Trends in Human Leukemia VIII

Abstract

Much attention has been devoted to the study of prognostic factors in acute leukemia. Most of the published studies have been concerned with easily measured clinical and hematological parameters [6, 8] while studies requiring specialized techniques such as chromosome or molecular analysis [9] and immunophenotyping of leukemia [1–3, 7] have generally been rare.
