| Summary |
"Tumor ablation is undoubtedly the most exciting and high-profile procedure currently in interventional radiology, with important implications for oncology and surgery. This useful guide sets the standard and is one of the first comprehensive references on the subject. Practitioners in specialties other than radiology, including internal medicine, oncology, anesthesiology, and surgery, add valuable insights that complement the book's well-rounded approach. In addition, a chapter that depicts the cancer journey by patients and their families provides a unique perspective for the reader. More than 400 photographs and diagrams clearly illustrate key concepts. The combination of depth and practicality makes this test essential for anyone who is involved with and wants to expand their knowledge in the ablation field."--Jacket |
