NEW GENERATION BREAST CANCER BOOK: HOW TO NAVIGATE YOUR DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OPTIONS-AND REMAIN OPTIMISTIC- IN AN AGE OF INFORMATION OVERLOAD
Book ID/图书代码: 01240014B76317
English Summary/英文概要: For the woman diagnosed with breast cancer in 2014, there’s every reason to be optimistic--screening, treatment, and survival rates have improved dramatically in a quick generation. However, remaining optimistic and focused on getting the right care can be extremely challenging in an age when an online search yields thousands of hits and links to often unreliable sources. Add to this the well-meaning input of friends, neighbors and colleagues (all of whom likely have their own experiences and biases) and even the most resilient patient will begin to feel confused and anxious.
Written by one of the world’s leading breast cancer physicians--a surgeon who consults with 2,000 patients a year and operates on about 500--The New Generation Breast Cancer Book is the one-stop, expert guide to today’s cutting-edge care. From screening, genetic testing and evaluating results, to what to expect and what to ask about surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, breast reconstruction, post-treatment medications and living as a "breast cancer survivor," Dr. Elisa Port walks the reader through every possible test and every last doctor visit, providing a fully up-to-date, comprehensive, and empathetic guide that every newly-diagnosed woman (and her family) will want to have.
