Subject(s): Summary: Providing the inside track on how the experts approach and deal with real-world clinical scenarios, Challenging Concepts In Oncology selects twenty five cases to highlight the important issues relating to common cancers and common cancer-related complications, which do not have simple answers. Each case discusses the presentation of the cancer, its treatment, and an acute oncological emergency. Written using the UK Oncology curricula for Medical Oncology and Clinical Oncology to support preparation for the MRCP3 examination in Medical Oncology and FRCR, Challenging Concepts in Oncology highlights critical information through the use of boxed features: 'Learning points', 'Clinical tips', and 'Evidence base'. Each chapter has been reviewed by a national or international expert in the field and they have provided an 'Expert commentary', giving a unique insight into how today's opinion leaders confront and deal with the challenges that all oncologists can potentially face on a daily basis. Aimed primarily at specialty trainees and registrars in oncology, this text is also a valuable resource for all health care professionals involved in looking after patients with cancer in primary, secondary, and tertiary care. It is also a fantastic resource for undergraduates who want to find out more about oncology.
