Summary "This book provides a comprehensive yet succinct update for the clinician in the diagnosis, staging, and treatment of lung cancer. Lung cancer is a leading cause of death in the US and worldwide and its prevention, screening, and treatment is a large part of clinical practice across specialties. Frequent updates in recommendations and guidelines in screening, diagnosis, staging, treatment, and management are vital, and it can be difficult for the busy clinician to stay up to date. This book provides a comprehensive update for the chest clinician across the continuum of lung cancer care. Each of the thirteen chapters covers a specific component of lung cancer care and is written by experts in the field who are practicing clinicians. The objectives are to provide an organized and
easily-referenced resource for the chest clinician; to provide comprehensive evidence-based information on the following topics: lung cancer screening and prevention, approach to lung nodules, diagnosis and staging of lung cancer, treatment of lung cancer, pleural disease in lung cancer, and treatment complications; and to provide source information for clinicians so they can stay up-to-date on any new guidelines or recommendations related to lung cancer screening, tobacco treatment, staging, and diagnosis. This book is written specifically for the busy clinician that focuses on clinically relevant and evidence-based principles around lung cancer while providing references for ease of finding source information to enable clinicians to stay updated as guidelines change. This is an ideal guide for practicing pulmonary clinicians, practicing general practice clinicians, trainees in chest and general medicine, as well as some advanced practice providers who need a refresher." -- Provided by publisher
