ASCO 2009: E-Review in Hematology |  | Dr. Steven T. Rosen | Welcome. I am pleased to share with you my selection of the "Top 10" hematology abstracts presented recently at the 45th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), along with my perspective on these key studies.
Follow the links below to the body of the program presented in two parts: “Practical Implications for Today” and “Compelling Data for Tomorrow.” Each of these two sections includes summaries of 5 key abstracts and my commentary. I’m happy to share my thoughts on how these abstracts relate to your practice and, most importantly, your patients, as well as how the data may impact clinical care in the future.
I invite you to take a look, and hope you find this program both interesting and informative.
