This simple, brief and succinct handbook covers all the salient features of management of genito-urinary (GU) cancers and contains all the important principles of GU cancer management.
A key feature of this book is an easy-to-look-up reference guide to step-by-step management strategies and drug dosages designed mainly for the trainee doctor in an emergency situation. Additionally, the book answers many questions patients ask for which there are no answers readily available in standard textbooks, e.g. dietary requirements during chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
Invaluable to residents, specialists, nurse practitioners, and medical secretaries in Urology, Radiotherapy, Oncology and Palliative Medicine as related to urological cancers.
