The Bone and Cancer Foundation (BCF) has announced the publishing of two new patient publications on Pain Management and Physical Therapy and other Rehabilitation Therapies.
BCF, founded in 2007, seeks to provide information for cancer patients, healthcare professionals and the public on the causes and treatment of cancer involving bone. It offers new resources for patients including a Glossary of words and terms related to cancer and a Frequently Asked Questions section. Other publication topics include breast cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer, osteonecrosis of the jaw, Vitamin D, surgery, myeloma and osteosarcoma. All publications are available free of charge, both in print and online.
The Foundation is organising a conference for Physicians and other Health Professionals on October 9, 2010, at the University of Pittsburgh. Clinical Perspectives on the Treatment of Bone Metastasis is designed for oncologists, urologists, or other medical professionals who treat cancer patients with bone related complications. Leading medical experts will discuss topics on pathophysiology of bone metastasis, breast cancer and bone metastasis, emerging therapies to prevent skeletal complications in men with prostate cancer, myeloma bone disease and management of cancer therapy induced bone loss. CME credit will be available.
