Breast Cancer – Pre-therapy assessment

Effective treatment of breast cancer is still a major challenge for cancer doctors, surgeons, general practitioners and radiotherapists.

What tests should be made to determine the best treatment?
How important are biological markers and cytological and anatamopathological results?
What prognosis criteria should be used?

In daily practice, diagnosing breast cancer is not very difficult. But it is not always clear which examinations should be carried out before treatment because the choice has individual implications and is also likely to be part of assessing the treatment.

This book is the first in a series about breast cancer and aims to help doctors involved in initial care of the disease.
