Ever wondered if your patient's new symptoms are a manifestation of
metastatic disease, treatment effects or are altogether unrelated
to the cancer diagnosis; whether herbal remedies interact with
cancer treatment; when to refer for genetic testing; or how to
provide informed advice regarding dietary and lifestyle
modifications? This volume answers these and many other questions,
spanning from cancer prevention to palliative care. Each chapter is
comprehensively referenced, to allow the reader to explore related
fields in more detail. The book is unique in summarizing a large
amount of information that is beyond conventional oncology
textbooks. While cancer is treated by multidisciplinary teams of
medical oncologists, hematologists, surgeons and radiation
oncologists, other specialists are called upon to treat symptoms,
side effects or other diseases that can occur concurrently with
cancer. In addition to the physical challenges brought about by a
cancer diagnosis, patients and their relatives need sensitive and
skilled psychosocial support throughout the cancer journey. The
book brings together specialists from a wide range of medical,
surgical, psychological and supportive specialties, while keeping
the focus on the interdisciplinary management of cancer.
