Description
PLATELETS is the definitive current source of state-of-the-art knowledge about platelets and covers the entire field
of platelet biology, pathophysiology, and clinical medicine. Recently there has been a rapid expansion of knowledge in both basic biology
and the clinical approach to platelet-related diseases including thrombosis and hemorrhage. Novel platelet function tests, drugs, blood
bank storage methods, and gene therapies have been incorporated into patient care or are in development. This book draws all this information
into a single, comprehensive and authoritative resource.
Audience
Hematologists, cardiologists, blood bankers, stroke physicians, pathologists, researchers in thrombosis and hemostasis, and students and fellows working in these fields
