Description
The book Principles and Management of Cancer is an effort to approach cancers site-wise and learn the alphabet of treating the various stages of different cancers using the present-day diagnostic aids and treatment modalities. The first few chapters give an insight on the development of technical nature in the last 100 years, the basics of diet, and emergencies encountered amongst the cancer patients. The site specialized treatments constitute the main body of the book and include stage specific-wise assessment to manage a patient with the best practices of three main therapeutic modalities, namely, viz. surgical, radiation and medical oncology. The final chapters introduce the concepts of Quality assurance, Drug discovery and Clinical trials.
