Allergology: Diagnostic Methods | Treatise on Clinical Immunology and High Complexity Allergological Diagnosis
Allergology and Immunology · Clinical Specialties
How it begins
Un tratado exhaustivo sobre los fundamentos biofísicos, moleculares, celulares y de provocación clínica orientados a la confirmación de la patología alérgica. Incluye la disección molecular del diagnóstico por componentes, los protocolos estandarizados de provocación controlada y el análisis crítico de las técnicas celulares de activación in vitro.
