Description

In Interventional Oncology: Principles and Practice, expert editors have brought together the accrued experience of pioneers and leaders in image-guided cancer therapy from around the globe to create the first comprehensive text for this emerging field. Covering the biology, techniques, clinical applications, and outcomes of interventional oncologic procedures for the treatment and palliation of solid tumors throughout the body, this practical reference will be indispensible for physicians across specialties who seek to provide collaborative, leading-edge care to cancer patients.
