policy makers who are interested and involved in cancer care in the
Arab world. The Arab world consists of 22 countries, which are
members of the Arab League and spanning over 13,132,327 km2 with
over 423,000,000 population. Over the past few decades, the Arab

that inevitably reflect on access to modern cancer care and

prevention programs in their individual countries. The chapters

future directions to achieve optimal care with conventional and
novel diagnostics and therapies to keep up with the era of
precision medicine. Special topics of interest and unique to the
