Kurzbeschreibung
Thoroughly revised and updated for its Third Edition, Malignant Liver Tumors provides a current, comprehensive, and critical approach to therapeutic modalities for patients with liver cancer. An entirely new section on Guidelines for Liver Tumor Treatment draws on consensus conferences and available international guidelines to help practitioners identify appropriate treatments for specific patients. Seven chapters on Emerging Therapies present the most promising developments from around the world.
Die gründlich überarbeitete und aktualisierte 3. Auflage dieses Referenzwerks ist eine aktuelle und umfassende Handreichung für die Behandlung von Patienten mit Lebertumoren. Auch werden die einzelnen Ansätze kritisch hinterfragt. Ein neuer Abschnitt mit Richtlinien zur Behandlung von Lebertumoren spiegelt einhellige Expertenmeinungen und international geltende Leitlinien wider und hilft so Ärzten, geeignete Behandlungsmethoden für einzelne Patienten zu finden. Weitreichende und vielversprechende Entwicklungen und neue Therapienansätze aus der ganzen Welt werden in sieben Kapiteln detailliert erörtert.
