Each issue is packed with extensive news about important cancer related science, policy, politics and people. Plus, there are editorials and reviews by experts in the field, book reviews, and commentary on timely topics.
Providing a concise update of the current knowledge on human papillomavirus (HPV) infections and their intimate link to cervical cancer, the book focuses on five interrelated topics: high- and low-risk HPV infections, methods for HPV detection and use of
The dangers and drawbacks inherent in radioactivity-based methods along with a demonstrated and dramatic increase in sensitivity have precipitated a major shift towards luminescence measurements and visualization techniques. Their use has now spread even to traditional clinical environments, and their applications have grown from clinical assays to
This is a comprehensive text on the diagnosis and multimodality management of the range of preinvasive and invasive cervical neoplasia. The book provides detailed accounts and illustrations of the cytopathology, histopathology and colposcopic appearances of cervical neoplasia, presents algorithms for managing patients with abnormal Pap smears and examines current treatment options or preinvasive neoplasia and microinvasive cervical cancer. The coverage of invasive cancer includes information on radical hysterectomy, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and combined modality treatments, as well as on the role of the emerging technique of operative laparoscopy. Full consideration is given to post-treatment surveillance, patterns of recurrence and management of recurrent cervical cancer. The book also includes reviews of the epidemiology and basic biology of cervical neoplasia, the etiologic role of the human papillomavirus (HPV), the latest diagnostic tests for HPV and the relationship of cervical neoplasia to the human immunodeficiency syndrome.
Studies on the papillomaviruses have expanded markedly due to the availability of recombinant reagents and in vitro systems and to the recognition of the strong association of specific papillomaviruses with certain carcinomas in humans. This book addresses molecular aspects of the viruses in both transformation and replication and also discusses several features of the molecular epidemiology of the human papillomaviruses.
This richly illustrated textbook and atlas brings together high-quality, colour colpophotographs that highlight all the variations seen in colposcopic practice. Its unique organisation allows readers to easily see correlations between cytology, colposcopy, and histology, just as they would need to infer when examining patients. Each chapter addresses a specific topic, from basic science to clinical colposcopy, written and edited by a well-known, recognised expert on that subject. Atlas images are incorporated into the text alongside relevant discussions, and descriptive graphics clarify topics such as low and high grade CIN, and cancer and glandular lesions. Easy-to-read bulleted information...
Reviews molecular pathology of genital papillomaviruses and related neoplasms emphasizing the relevance of molecular biology to pathologic diagnosis and clinical management. Covers techniques for detecting the viruses and covers origin, development, recurrence and therapy of HPV-related neoplasms.
