Prostate cancer is the most common malignancy in males, with
approximately 200,000 Americans diagnosed with the disease
annually. It is also the second most common cause of cancer-related
death in the United States. Prostate cancer has a unique biology
which involves endocrine pathways that have been successfully
exploited for diagnostic advances and developmental therapeutics.
However, the optimal screening, diagnosis, and therapy of this
highly prevalent cancer are in rapid flux and oftentimes
controversial. These vexing issues are frequently a source of
confusion in the clinic, warranting timely educational resources
aimed to assist clinicians in medical decision making.
Technological advances and therapeutic strategies have also evolved
rapidly in the past decade, requiring a more up-to-date resource.
Part of the new Oxford American Oncology Library series, this
volume is concisely written and tightly formatted and features
numerous tables, figures, charts, and illustrations, making it an
excellent reference at the point of care. This handbook is
primarily intended for clinicians directly involved in the care of
patients with prostate cancer - specifically urologic, radiation,
and medical oncologists, as well as for primary care practitioners
or any other health care professionals who treat patients with this
disease. Additionally, many educated patients may also benefit from
such a handbook to assist in their own informed decision-making
regarding diagnosis and therapy.
