  • Title: [Flow cytometry controlled induction therapy with ATG and noninvasive monitoring of rejection--a modern management concept after heart transplantation].
    Author: Wagner FM, Tugtekin SM, Matschke K, Platzbecker U, Gulielmos V, Schüler S.
    Journal: Langenbecks Arch Chir Suppl Kongressbd; 1998; 115():1566-7. PubMed ID: 9931945.
    Abstract:
    We introduce our concept of non-invasive transplant monitoring. The introduction of individualized immunosuppression by means of flow cytometry leads to a lower incidence of acute graft rejection and preserves immuncompetence. With the simultaneous use of echocardiography and intramyocardial electrogram (IMEG) acute graft rejections can be safely identified without using any invasive method.
