Ovarian Cancers
In an era of promising advances in cancer research, there are considerable and even alarming gaps in the fundamental knowledge and understanding of ovarian cancer. Researchers now know that ovarian cancer is not a single disease-several distinct subtypes exist with different origins, risk factors, genetic mutations, biological behaviors, and prognoses. However, persistent questions have impeded progress toward improving the prevention, early detection, treatment, and management of ovarian cancers. Failure to significantly improve morbidity and mortality during the past several decades is likely due to several factors, including the lack of research being performed by specific disease subtype...
Breast Cancer Radiation Therapy
The book provides, in a comprehensive yet concise way, essential information to improve the knowledge and skills of all healthcare providers involved in the treatment of patients with breast cancer. The content does not focus on general information that is widely available via different sources, but on technical aspects – “hands-on” daily practices and principles of radiation oncology that are not included in other books. Drawing on information taught in courses at e.g. the ESTRO School, as well as the authors’ broad clinical experience, the respective contributions reflect and share the expertise of leading experts in breast cancer radiation therapy, supported by sound data and evidence. Each chapter includes a short introduction summarizing the evidence in the literature and “pearls” (a short bullet-point summary), and is enriched by tables, figures and illustrations to provide a concise, easy-to-follow and appealing overview. The book, containing also useful electronic supplementary material, will be of interest to a wide range of readers, including radiation oncologists, radiation technicians, medical physicists, and others involved in breast cancer care.

New Technologies for Liver Resections
This publication offers an up-to-date review of the most recent developments in regard to new technologies for surgical resection of the liver. Various topics are presented, and the results of the author's experiences are critically discussed. The issues range from the preoperative evaluation of liver function, the intraoperative use of new surgical devices, ultrasonography and isotopes, and alternative approaches to resections such as laparoscopy to complementary or alternative procedures like arterial chemoembolization, pump infusion chemotherapy and living-related donor liver transplantation. Covering physiopathological, surgical and technical aspects, this book contains a wealth of valuable information for abdominal surgeons, hepatologists and oncologists. It will also be useful for continuing medical education.
