Synopsis

The UICC "Manual of Clinical Oncology" has become a basic textbook for all students and practitioners. It gives concise, clear information on the concepts and underlying principles which govern optimal cancer prevention, diagnosis and treatment. The manual focuses on basic aspects and does not go into details of therapy, which are ever changing and controversial. The fifth, fully revised edition has new chapters on carcinogenesis and prevention as well as many new tables and figures. The text is easy to understand and covers the basic and clinical biology of cancer in all its breadth.

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

A world–renowned reference which is published in affiliation with the UICC, the Manual of Clinical Oncology, Seventh Edition provides updated and essential information on cancer detection, identification, diagnosis, and treatment.

Clearly written and detailed, the Seventh Edition presents the most appropriate procedures for the diagnosis and staging of cancer treatment while emphasizing the cost/benefit ratio. In addition, it features two new flowcharts for each cancer discussed: the first follows the most basic diagnostic and staging intervention techniques, while the second includes special, more advanced procedures.

Divided into concise, accessible sections, the Seventh Edition examines such areas as:
∗ The cellular and molecular biology of cancer
∗ Cancer etiology, epidemiology, and smoking cessation
∗ Screening and early detection, diagnosis and pathology, staging and management, surgical principles, and clinical trials
∗ The specific targeting of cancers by anatomical location, including pain management, rehabilitation, and the psychological aspects of cancer

The Manual of Clinical Oncology, Seventh Edition is an authoritative and indispensable resource for all oncologists, general practitioners, doctors–in–training, and nurses worldwide.
