Guest guest Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 Someone asked me about the difference between partial remission, complete remission, and MRD. I know I've read the answer, but can't find it. Is there someone out there who can explain the difference? Thanks! Pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 Fairly complicated and there are a number of criteria that must all be met. The best source is the IWCLL 2008 Guidelines...updating the 1996 NCVI guidelines http://tinyurl.com/3ewv3ql or http://bloodjournal.hematologylibrary.org/content/111/12/5446.full.pdf There are a number of versions of this floating around the internet. Please make certain it states this on the first page: " This is a new version, updated and corrected, as of December 8, 2008.
