Thanks for the videos. I appreciate that you separated the Leukemia lectures into individual videos opposed to one larger video. It makes it easier to navigate while studying.... Did you complete or plan to record Myeloproliferative d/o's (PCV, Essential thrombocytosis, or myelofibrosis)? If so I might have missed it. Thanks again.

Philadelphia chromosome is also present in ALL ; however , in ALL it is not favorable mutation . Here in CML , its presence is considered favorable . Thank you sir !

To learn more about Leukemia and its treatments, you can consult Dr. S. K. Gupta. He is one of the best hematologists in India. If you can't visit his hospital, Dr. S. K. Gupta has a facility for video consultations too. Visit their website for consultation or for a second opinion regarding treatment.

you said that basophilia is common in leukemias.. are you pointing out at the staining or at the cells? do the cells stain more basophilic? or do we have increase in basophils?

Osama Masri basophilic cells of wbc not those who stain
