| Kurzbeschreibung
Cancer genetics is a rapidly expanding medical specialty with continual important scientific discoveries and ever-changing guidelines for identifying and managing patients with hereditary cancer syndromes. Five completely new chapters deal with breast cancer, colon cancer, other solid tumors, clients and families, and genetic test results and follow-up. This is the most comprehensive and up-to-date reference for genetic counselors and other health care providers to keep up with this dynamic field.
