This volume strives to give oncologists and other medical
practitioners a thorough picture of the oncology patient. It's
designed to show that psychological needs of the patient are an
important aspect that should be considered for optimizing the
effects of cancer treatment, no less than genetic, immunological,
physiological and other medical features that are often considered
as necessary components of personalized medicine. Using
evidence-based information, the book describes the different ways
cancer touches upon a person's life, including emotional, physical,
and social changes, important decisions, and support structure. It
also details the phases every cancer patient encounters along the
way, from getting tested and waiting for the diagnosis, to
treatments, survival, and confronting one's mortality.
Psycho-oncology for the Clinician will serve to contribute to the
further scientific development of psycho-oncology, expand its use
as a treatment modality, strengthen its status as an essential
component of cancer care, and promote the acceptance of
psycho-oncology as the new evidence-based constituent of
personalized medicine in oncology.
