A very practical and descriptive volume, it presents basic information on the production, characterization and radiolabeling of monoclonal antibodies and their clinical uses. Much of the technology involved in the production of radiolabeled antibodies suitable for clinical administration is poorly understood by most clinical and paramedical hospital staff. This book, by presenting the practical aspects of this developing field, provides the basis for understanding future clinical developments.
