This intermediate to advanced level syllabus is intended for those involved in haematopoietic progenitor cell (HPC) programmes. The material covers the techniques and clinical utility of quantitative characterization of HPC components and provides examples of technological methods.
Clinical utility of quantitating normal haematopoietic cells by clonal
assays and flow cytometry; methods for quantitation of CD34 and
haematopoietic progenitor cells; quantitation of accessory cells in
haematopoietic stem cell components (methods and clinincal applications);
quantitation of malignant cells in haematopoietic stem cell components
(methods and clinical applications).
