Apolipoprotein E Genotyping in Alzheimer's Disease by Norman R. Relkin,Zaven S. Khachaturian,Samuel Gandy Pdf
This volume addresses what is currently known about the use of ApoE genotyping in diagnosing and predicting Alzheimer's disease. Because ApoE genetic testing has such far-reaching consequences, this volume will be of use not only to those in the medical and scientific community involved in the care of patients with Alzheimer's disease, but also to those concerned with the ethical, legal, epidemiological and public health policy issues as well. A summary will also be included of the results of working groups defining the issues, asking methodological questions, and discussing issues concerning genetic counselling and research-related questions.
