摘要:This is an important and rapidly changing area and the molecular study of paediatric tumours have contributed enormously to our understanding of the pathogenesis of paediatric oncology. The book provides a comprehensive review of molecular pathology and cytogenetic techniques, looking at the recent developments and their impact on our understanding of aetiology, clinical behaviour, diagnosis and management of paediatric cancer.
