Minimal Residual Disease in Acute Leukemia 1986 edited by A. Hagenbeek, B. Löwenberg.

Relapse of leukemia following successful remission-induction therapy remains a major obstacle in the treatment of patients with acute leukemia. Leukemia recurs most frequently in patients with acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) and high risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) following chemotherapy a...
