Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics
The EFI-, ASHI-, and APHIA-endorsed professional guide for laboratory diagnostics in transplantation medicine
In Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics: A Guide for Practitioners, expert authors from across the globe deliver an authoritative introduction to the concepts, methods, and clinical applications of matching donors with acceptors of transplanted cells and organs. Fundamental concepts and limitations of current immunogenetic as well as histocompatibility diagnostic approaches are explained, and best practices to improving the outcomes of transplantation therapies are discussed. Readers will also find:
- A holistic view of transplantation diagnostics, including drug and disease associations with histocompatibility markers
- Options for the medical treatment of organ rejection
- Practical discussions of specific methods in immunogenetics and histocompatibility, such as crossmatching in transplantation and KIR genotyping
- A thorough introduction to the regulatory aspects of histocompatibility and immunogenetics
Perfect for clinical geneticists and immunologists, Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics will also benefit medical and research professionals working in medical laboratories and hospitals.
