9780750614047: Cancer in Practice

Sinossi

A basic, up-to-date text on all aspects of the management of the patient with cancer, aimed at general practitioners, but of use to others including students and those who are not in the mainstream of cancer treatment. The first section covers carcinogenesis, general principles of management, research statistics, screening and educational initiatives as well as a chapter on the role of "alternative care." Specific malignancies are dealt with in the second section, and the final section covers physical and psychological symptom control, complications of cancer and its treatment, rehabilitation, and social and financial support.
