The second edition of the summary of recent advances and new research in the field of lung cancer, emphasizing biology, diagnosis, and treatment. Includes a study of the factors influencing predisposition and the development of pre-neoplastic lesions, chemoprevention strategies, and current and future advances in radiation therapy.
Lung cancer is a leading cause of death in men and women, but until recently there has been little new to say in terms of diagnosis and treatment. This situation has changed with the arrival of - for instance - magnetic resonance imaging for more efficient diagnosis, and new treatment in the form of new surgical approaches, the use of lasers and adjuvant treatment (the boosting of the immune system). This volume concentrates on, and puts into perspective, the most recent and exciting advances, assuming basic knowledge of oncology and pulmonary and thoracic surgery.
