However, recent development with novel systemic drugs and palliative surgical techniques, together with advances in diagnostic imaging, have given new hope for these patients and made the treatment of these patients considerably more challenging. One convenient source bringing together the various relevant aspects is long overdue. Written by a team of well-respected authors from the UK's leading cancer centres, this important handbook covers: Systemic treatment for breast cancer, including endocrine therapy, chemotherapy, targeted biologics and bisphosphonates Diagnostic imaging and tumour assessment, including Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Local management options for neurological, pulmonary, hepatic and orthopaedic complications Palliative care Exploring a topic of great current interest, Handbook of Metastatic Breast Cancer is a highly useful resource for Medical and Clinical Oncologists, Breast Surgeons, Radiologists, Neurosurgeons, Orthopaedic & Thoracic Surgeons & Clinical Scientists.
