Early Detection of Cancer

Abstract

"This is the first book to be devoted exclusively to rare tumors in children and adolescents. The completely revised and updated second edition reflects the significant progress that has been accomplished as a result of intensified international networking, deeper implementation of novel diagnostic tools, and the advent of molecular targeted therapies. Readers will find practical guidance on all aspects of clinical management, including diagnostic workup, multimodal therapy, follow-up, and management of adverse effects. The discussion of differential diagnosis encompasses both frequent and rare tumor types, enabling clinicians to take rare entities into account during diagnostic assessment of childhood tumors. Detailed therapeutic recommendations, developed in an international consensus process, are provided for specific rare tumors. In addition, general issues such as epidemiology, etiology, risk factors, biology and genetics, early detection, and screening are fully covered. The book is written by an international and multidisciplinary group of specialists and will be an important compendium for all pediatric oncologists who care for patients with rare tumors." --publisher

Sarcoma - diagnosis

Sarcoma - therapy

Abstract

"Sarcomas: Evidence-Based Diagnosis and Management provides relevant information to trainees, oncologists who would like to learn more about sarcomas, and even experienced sarcoma oncologists. This book is designed to allow the reader to not only learn the latest information about sarcoma diagnosis and management, but also to rapidly access content via the physical book or on their smart device amidst a busy clinic. Content is structured by the most common sarcoma histologic subtypes as well as by general concepts. Each histologic subtype chapter includes a case-based study in which the reader can follow the diagnostic and treatment thought processes as the author illustrates their management of a complex medical situation. As sarcoma diagnosis and management requires an experienced multidisciplinary team, we include overview chapters from each of the medical disciplines involved in the care of sarcoma patients"
