Description
Springer Image-Guided Interventions in Oncology An Interdisciplinary Approach 1st Editon 2020 Softbound by Christos Georgiades, Hyun S. Kim
This book provides an up-to-date and comprehensive primer on image-guided interventions for cancer. Image-guided interventional oncology is gaining popularity as it is a minimally invasive and more precisely targeted approach that both proves more effective and results in fewer side effects. This book’s aim is to provide a clinical guide to interventional oncology for the entire oncology team. Chapters are approached with the same interdisciplinary perspective that is used in the care itself, with each chapter written by an interventional radiologist with contributions from medical, surgical and/or radiation oncologists. Chapters cover the major cancers that can benefit from interventional oncology treatment (including lung, liver, kidney, and bone), as well as some of the physics and physiology behind these interventional modalities. This is an ideal guide for interventional radiologists, medical oncologists, surgical oncologists, radiation oncologists, as well as relevant trainees. 1.Physics/Physiology of Ablation Modalities.- 2.Physics/Physiology of Radioembolization.- 3.Physics/Physiology of Transarterial Chemoembolization & Drug Eluting Beads.- 4.Primary Lung Cancer.- 5.Secondary Lung Cancer.- 6.Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Western Experience.- 7.Hepatocellular Carcinoma, Eastern Experience.- 8.Intra-Hepatic Cholangiocarcinoma.- 9.Colorectal Cancer: Liver Metastatic Disease.- 10.Neuroendocrine Neoplasms.- 11.Renal Cell Carcinoma.- 12.Bone metastatic disease.- 13.Breast Cancer.- 14.Thyroid Cancer.- 15.Soft Tissue Sarcoma (STS).- 16.The Role of Interventional Oncology in the Treatment of Metastatic Melanoma.- 17.Pancreatic Cancer.- 18.Image Guided Biopsy/Liquid Biopsy.- 19.Tumor Profiling.- 20.Imaging findings following locoregional cancer therapies.- 21.Immune Modulation in Interventional Oncology.
