Detection Rate of Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance Determined

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a clonal plasma cell malignancy that accounts for approximately 2% of all malignancies. Plasma cells help you fight infections by making antibodies that recognize and attack pathogens. Multiple myeloma causes cancer cells to accumulate in the bone marrow, where they displace healthy blood cells. More...
