انکولوژی بالینی Abeloff، ویرایش ششم که به راحتی قابل دسترسی و تمرکز بالینی است، پیشرفتهای اخیر در درک ما از پاتوفیزیولوژی سرطان، علل سلولی و مولکولی شروع و پیشرفت سرطان، درمانهای جدید و نوظهور، آزمایشهای فعلی و موارد دیگر را پوشش میدهد. این کتاب که توسط یک تیم بینالمللی از متخصصان برجسته سرطان نوشته شده است، پوششی واضح و عملی از همه چیز از علوم پایه گرفته تا همکاری چند رشتهای در تشخیص، مرحلهبندی، درمان و پیگیری ارائه میدهد. شامل فصول جدید در مورد متابولیسم سرطان و طرح های کارآزمایی بالینی در انکولوژی و یک فصل مستقل در مورد سبک زندگی و پیشگیری از سرطان است. دارای بهروزرسانیهای گسترده از جمله آخرین دستورالعملهای عمل بالینی، الگوریتمهای تصمیمگیری، و مفاهیم کارآزمایی بالینی، و همچنین محتوای جدید در مورد پزشکی دقیق، ژنتیک، و تصویربرداری PET/CT. شامل پروتکلهای تشخیصی و درمانی اصلاحشده برای مدیریت پزشکی، ملاحظات جراحی، و درمانهای انکولوژی پرتویی، که بر رویکرد چندتخصصی و یکپارچه برای مراقبت تاکید دارد. به شما کمک می کند اطلاعات را با نمایه سازی به روز مرتبط با توصیه های مدیریت، خلاصه واقعیت های متمرکز، نکات کلیدی به روز شده در ابتدای هر فصل برای مرجع سریع و بررسی هیئت مدیره، و الگوریتم هایی برای ارزیابی بیمار، تشخیص و گزینه های درمانی پیدا کنید. پوشش مراقبت از بیمار بیشتر در فصل های بیماری، به علاوه اطلاعات جدید در مورد سرطان به عنوان یک بیماری مزمن و نجات از سرطان را ارائه می دهد. در مورد موضوعات کلیدی امروزی مانند ایمونوآنکولوژی، تصویربرداری عملکردی، پزشکی دقیق، کاربرد ژنتیک در تشخیص پاتولوژیک و طبقه بندی فرعی تومورها و همچنین ارتباط بیماری های عفونی مزمن مانند HIV و سرطان بحث می کند. نسخه کتاب الکترونیکی پیشرفته همراه با خرید. کتاب الکترونیکی پیشرفته شما به شما امکان می دهد به تمام متن ها، شکل ها و مراجع کتاب در دستگاه های مختلف دسترسی داشته باشید.
Easily accessible and clinically focused, Abeloff's Clinical Oncology, 6th Edition, covers recent advances in our understanding of the pathophysiology of cancer, cellular and molecular causes of cancer initiation and progression, new and emerging therapies, current trials, and much more. Masterfully authored by an international team of leading cancer experts, it offers clear, practical coverage of everything from basic science to multidisciplinary collaboration on diagnosis, staging, treatment and follow up. Includes new chapters on Cancer Metabolism and Clinical Trial Designs in Oncology and a standalone chapter on lifestyles and cancer prevention. Features extensive updates including the latest clinical practice guidelines, decision-making algorithms, and clinical trial implications, as well as new content on precision medicine, genetics, and PET/CT imaging. Includes revised diagnostic and treatment protocols for medical management, surgical considerations, and radiation oncology therapies, stressing a multispecialty, integrated approach to care. Helps you find information quickly with updated indexing related to management recommendations, focused fact summaries, updated key points at the beginning of each chapter ideal for quick reference and board review, and algorithms for patient evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment options. Offers more patient care coverage in disease chapters, plus new information on cancer as a chronic illness and cancer survivorship. Discusses today's key topics such as immuno-oncology, functional imaging, precision medicine, the application of genetics in pathologic diagnosis and sub-categorization of tumors as well as the association of chronic infectious diseases such as HIV and cancer.
