34 Principles of Molecular Diagnostics and Personalized Cancer Medicine Tan & Lynch

Manual of Clinical Oncology, Seventh Edition A Part of the Lippincott’s Manual Series Casciato & Territo

The role of molecular genetics in the treatment of malignancy continues to grow at an astonishing rate. Today’s subspecialized multidisciplinary approach to oncology has incorporated advances in targeted molecular therapy, prognosis, risk assessment, and prevention—all based at least in part on molecular diagnostics and imaging. Inside this cutting-edge resource, readers can explore broad, comprehensive perspectives on the current trends in molecular diagnosis of cancer and personalized cancer medicine.

Manual of Clinical Oncology is a concise pocket manual of oncology that incorporates basic science, clinical findings, and available technology into the diagnosis and management of cancer. It focuses on information useful for participating in rounds and for making diagnostic and therapeutic decisions at the bedside of cancer patients. Updated for its Seventh Edition, this pocket manual is a practical, accessible, comprehensive guide to the management of patients with cancer. In an outline format designed for rapid reference, the book provides the essential information needed for fast, effective
