By providing an authoritative introduction to concepts, methods and applications in matching donors and acceptors of transplanted cells and organs, this guide provides medical researchers and practitioners with the key knowledge for performing meaningful histocompatibility analyses and thereby improving the outcome of transplantation therapies across all medical fields. The authors are all members of the European and/or American Societies for Immunogenetics and have been instrumental in developing commonly accepted standards and therapeutic recommendations.
