Geriatric Oncology
Geriatric Oncology [electronic resource] /edited by Martine Extermann. - 1st ed. 2020. - 76 illus., 50 illus. in color. eReference.online resource.

Section I: Epidemiology -- Section II: Biology of Aging and Cancer -- Section III: Pathophysiology of Aging and Cancer -- Section IV: Geriatric Assessment and Management in Oncology -- Section V: Heme Malignancies -- Section VI: Solid Tumors -- Section VII: Patient Care Issues -- Section VIII: Research Methods in Geriatric Oncology.

This book is intended as a comprehensive resource for clinicians and researchers seeking in-depth information on geriatric oncology. The coverage encompasses epidemiology, the biology and (patho)physiology of aging and cancer, geriatric assessment and management, hematologic malignancies, solid tumors, issues in patient care, and research methods. Since cancer is a disease of aging and people are living longer, most cancer patients are now aged 70 and older. Yet the more we age, the more diverse we become in terms of our health, biologic fitness, and cancer behavior. Typically, however, general oncology clinical trials address only a selected healthier and younger population of patients. Geriatric oncology is the area of oncology that addresses these issues but while a wealth of knowledge has been accumulated, information is often difficult to retrieve or insufficiently detailed. The SpringerReference program, in which this book is published, offers an ideal format for overcoming these limitations since it combines thorough coverage with access to living editions constantly updated chapter by chapter via a dynamic peer-review process, ensuring that information remains current and pertinent.
