AJCC Cancer Staging Handbook


From
the AJCC Cancer Staging Manual prepared by the American Joint Committer
on Cancer, the Cancer Staging Handbook contains the complete text of
the Manual conveniently sized to fit the pocket of a lab coat for
complete portability.* Used by physicians and health care professionals
worldwide to facilitate the uniform description of neoplastic diseases,
the fully revised and updated Sixth Edition of the AJCC Cancer Staging
Handbook brings together all currently available information on staging
of cancer at various anatomic sites and incorporates newly acquired
knowledge on the etiology and pathology of cancer. Proper classification
and staging allow the physician to determine treatment more
appropriately, evaluate results of management more reliably, and compare
worldwide statistics reported from various institutions on a local,
regional, and national basis more confidently. All of the TNM staging
information included in the Sixth Edition is uniform between the AJCC
and the UICC (International Union Against Cancer).
Organized by disease site into 48 comprehensive chapters, the Sixth
Edition features much-anticipated, major revisions to the chapters on
melanoma and breast cancer. Numerous new line drawings illustrate key
anatomic sites throughout the text. Additional user-friendly
enhancements include:
* a concise summary of changes in the TNM classification since the
previous edition at the start of every chapter * page tabs for easy
access between chapters * a comprehensive index
The Sixth Edition of the AJCC Cancer Staging Manual and Handbook remain
the essential reference for oncologists, pathologists, surgeons, cancer
registrars, and medical professionals worldwide to assure that all those
taking care of cancer patients will be trained in the language of
cancer staging.
* Cancer staging forms may be found in the AJCC Cancer Staging
Manual-the forms are featured at the end of every chapter and included
on a CD-ROM packaged with the book
