The ONCOLOGY Group, an information provider addressing the educational needs and interests of cancer clinicians and patients, has announced the publication of the 11th edition of Cancer Management: A Multidisciplinary Approach. Scheduled for release in the Fall of 2008, the publication is a popular resource for the oncology and hematology community. It seeks to keep pace with these rapidly changing fields by providing clinicians with up-to-date, practical, and authoritative information on patient management.
Since its initial publication over 10 years ago, Cancer Management: A Multidisciplinary Approach continues to be a much-anticipated tool for cancer clinicians. The publication is designed to present important clinical information concisely, uniformly, and logically, emphasising the natural history of the malignancy, screening and diagnosis, staging and prognosis, and treatment.
The new edition contains contributions from more than 100 medical, surgical, and radiation oncologists, thereby providing an excellent overview of the important principles of cancer management. Each chapter reflects the recommendations of practitioners cognizant that decisions and recommendations regarding therapies must be founded on evidence-based research directed at practical patient care in a cost-effective manner. Joining Dr. Lawrence D. Wagman as the publication's chief medical editors are: Dr. Richard Pazdur of the Office of Oncology Drug Products, US Food and Drug Administration; Dr. Kevin Camphausen of the National Cancer Institute; and Dr. William Hoskins of the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.
