During the last few decades, there has been a tremendous
improvement in the treatment of cancer. There is evidence that this
trend is continuing, based on the achievements re sulting from the
combined efforts of clinicians and basic re search workers. This
book is an example of such interaction and collaboration. It was
prepared by authors representing both areas of work. Most of the
work reported in this book is not merely theoretical, but has been
experimentally successfully tested and sometimes applied
clinically. This work has, however, not yet been generalized and
practiced on a wide scale. Some of the results reported here relate
to new aspects and open new horizons for future progress. This book
will be of great value for both clinicians and basic research
workers. VICC Treatment and Rehabilitation Programme ISMAIL ELSEBAI
Chairman Preface The three main approaches to the treatment of
cancer are surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. Today, all
malignant neoplasms are managed by one or more of these modalities,
with varying success rates depending on the type of tumor, its
degree of spread, and the knowl edge and skill with which the
treatment plan has been designed and executed. In the United States
of America and in Europe, approximate ly half of all cancer is
presently curable, but this has been the case for approximately 20
years."
