The role of genetics is becoming increasingly important in all
aspects of healthcare and particularly in the field of cancer care.
Genetics for Health Professionals in Cancer Care: From Principles
to Practice equips health professionals with the knowledge and
skills required for all aspects of managing cancer family history.
This includes taking an accurate cancer family history and drawing
a family tree; understanding cancer biology, basic cancer genetics
and the genes involved in hereditary breast, ovarian, prostate,
colorectal, gastric and related gynaecological cancers and rare
cancer predisposing syndromes; assessing cancer risk and
communicating risk information; early detection and risk reducing
measures available for those at increased risk and managing
individuals with hereditary cancer. Drawing on experiences of
health professionals, Genetics for Health Professionals in Cancer
Care discusses the challenges raised and provides practical advice
and insight into what happens when a patient is referred for
genetic counselling and genetic testing, including the
psychological, social and ethical issues faced by individuals and
families with and at risk of hereditary cancer. The book also
provides practical guidance on setting up a cancer family history
clinic in primary and secondary care. Genetics for Health
Professionals in Cancer Care is essential reading for healthcare
professionals working with cancer patients and their families, and
is an ideal reference text for non-specialists working in cancer
genetics.
