Gynaecological Oncology

Considerable progress is currently being made in gynecological oncology, such as the development of screening programs for early detection of disease, the use of new techniques in surgery for operable tumors, and radiotherapy and chemotherapy to treat advanced disease. In order to provide the best care, treatment, and advice for a patient, the whole medical team - doctors, nurses, paramedics, and social workers - needs a sound foundation in gynecological oncology. This book is an accessible guide to the diagnosis, investigation, and treatment of common gynecological cancers. It also discusses the management of patients with advanced disease, including the role of palliative care. This book will be valuable to doctors and nurses in radiotherapy, oncology, and gynecology, and other health care professionals involved in the care of patients with gynecological cancers.Lambert, Hannah E. is the author of 'Gynaecological Oncology' with ISBN 9780192622037 and ISBN 019262203X.
