Stage I/II follicular lymphoma: spread of bcl-2/IgH+ cells in blood and bone marrow from primary site of disease and possibility of clearance after involved field radiotherapy.

abstract：:Increased osteoclastic bone resorption is the major causal factor of bone disease in multiple myeloma. Recently, non-invasive methods have been developed for the estimation of bone resorptive activity. To evaluate the biological sensitivity and clinical usefulness of five biochemical assays for measuring the C-termina...
