Description

The AJCC Cancer Staging Manual is used by physicians and health care professionals throughout the world to facilitate the uniform description and reporting of neoplastic diseases. Proper classification and staging of cancer is essential for the physician to assign proper treatment, evaluate results of management and clinical trials, and to serve as the standard for local, regional and international reporting on cancer incidence and outcome. Significantly expanded and developed by international disease site expert panels, the Eighth Edition AJCC Cancer Staging Manual brings together all the currently available knowledge on staging of cancer at various anatomic sites. In this edition, evidence-based TNM staging is supplemented, as appropriate, by selected molecular markers and newly acquired insights into the molecular underpinnings of cancer. This edition features 12 entirely new staging systems, a wide range of changed or new staging definitions, and a refined emphasis on a personalized-medicine approach. To enhance the print and electronic usability of the cancer staging forms, they are now available exclusively for access and downloading at www.cancerstaging.org. The Eighth Edition AJCC Cancer Staging Manual remains the gold standard reference for oncologists, surgeons, pathologists, radiologists, cancer registrars and medical professionals world-wide to ensure that all those caring for cancer patients are fully versed in the language of cancer staging. 11 b/w illustrations, 979 illustrations in colou.

⭐Received today 9/28/2024. I was expecting the 3rd printing. Surprised to get the 4th printing. Should be ok for my class!

⭐This is a cancer staging book used for staging malignant cancers. When I pre-ordered the first printing of the 8th edition, it was out of date by the time it arrived at my house. The Third Printing is important since so many updates have happened right after the first printing.

⭐todo profesional de la oncologia debe tener uno

⭐Hooray! Awesome! I’m so excited to finally have an electronic version!!I immediately downloaded the most up-to-date errata (the newest one was 6/29/18) and spot checked for about 15 minutes. This book is correct.Also, I like the table of contents, it is simple enough to be useful, chapter titles only.The Kindle version allows for highlighting and notes. Just highlight a word and a menu pops up. There is a bookmark feature as well.2018 is finally looking up! Thanks, AJCC!Kathy Fors, CTR

⭐Very useful in my career as a cancer registrar! 3rd edition printing which is the most current and price was the lowest I found!

⭐quick deliveryin good condition

⭐Useful

⭐Otimo

⭐Exactly as advertised. No surprises. Shipped quickly.

⭐Pues eso, después de la edición en papel con incontables erratas parece que tuvieron que rehacerlo todo para sacar la edición digital, con un año de retraso con respecto a lo previsto.Libro de cabecera en oncología, nunca debió haberse retrasado tanto.

⭐À avoir dans sa bibliothèque surtout que la version européenne n’est pas à jour, pleins d’erreurs.Livre très bien illustré.
