Book Description

This book presents the most important information in surgical oncology in an easily accessible manner. It can be read during the length of a rotation on a surgical oncology service. Chapters are arranged by organ involvement. Each chapter begins with epidemiology and screening following by methods of diagnosis, preoperative evaluation and staging. Treatment options and outcomes and post-treatment surveillance are described. Important aspects of radiation and systemic therapies are also addressed in separate chapters. In the past several years a new generation of surgical oncologists has been trained in the U.S. Few academic progams are now without a service devoted to surgial oncology. This book is written to aid that group of surgical oncologists in training surgeons to become educated collaborators in medical decision-making. This comprehensive spiral-bound handbook fits in the pocket of a hospital coat.

Book Description

This volume in the Robotic Radiosurgery series is devoted to the theory and practice in the emerging field of stereotactic radiosurgery for extracranial tumors, particularly those that move as patients breathe. Special attention is given to the frameless robotic radiosurgery device known as the CyberKnife. Moving tumors are treated with the CyberKnife using a revolutionary new tool, called the Synchrony® Respiratory Tracking System, which can track moving tumors in real time. Detailed information is provided on the technology and methodology for delivery of high doses of radiation to moving targets, radiobiological and radiological principles, and the challenges faced by clinicians performing extracranial stereotactic radiosurgery. Furthermore, there are thorough reviews of the general clinical literature on stereotactic radiation treatment of tumors of the lungs, liver, and pancreas, and the latest clinical data from clinicians conducting clinical studies using the CyberKnife® Robotic Radiosurgery System.
