Breast Neoplasms - therapy

Abstract

"This book highlights up-to-date and novel information with clinical aspects regarding breast cancer. It covers aspects ranging from epidemiology, biology, and molecular classification to currently available and potentially new therapeutic options for breast cancer. It highlights insights into breast cancer at the molecular level with a holistic approach to use combinational strategies involving various therapies for targeting different pathways involved in this particular malignancy. This book contains a range of latest resources, including schematic illustrations, recent reviews, and information for patients with breast cancer. Various novel biomarkers that are under clinical investigation will also be discussed in this book. Furthermore, the relapse and recurrence after treatment with various therapies presents a great problem, as it develops resistance to which combinational strategy may prove to be a promising approach, and in this book, we have discussed all the aspects of combination therapy in breast cancer. People including students, research scholars, educators, pharmaceutical professionals, clinicians, researchers, practitioners and patients as well as their family members will find this book very much useful." --publisher

Abstract

"The book provides, in a comprehensive yet concise way, essential information to improve the knowledge and skills of all healthcare providers involved in the treatment of patients with breast cancer. The content does not focus on general information that is widely available via different sources, but on technical aspects - -hands-on" daily practices and principles of radiation oncology that are not included in other books. Drawing on information taught in courses at e.g. the ESTRO School, as well as the authors' broad clinical experience, the respective contributions reflect and share the expertise of leading experts in breast cancer radiation therapy, supported by sound data and evidence. Each chapter includes a short introduction summarizing the evidence in the literature and "pearls" (a short bullet-point summary), and is enriched by tables, figures and illustrations to provide a concise, easy-to-follow and appealing overview.The book, containing also useful electronic supplementary material, will be of interest to a wide range of readers, including radiation oncologists, radiation technicians, medical physicists, and others involved in breast cancer care." --Amazon
