Master Evidence‑Based Neuro‑Oncology: Integrating Anatomy, Imaging, and Therapeutics for Personalized Care
Stay at the forefront of brain tumor management with this essential guide offering a clear, clinical, and evidence-based approach to neuro-oncology. It unites foundational biology with practical strategies for pathology, radiology, surgery, radiation therapy, and systemic treatments—structured to support personalized patient care.
Key Features:
Holistic Clinical Framework: Begins with detailed coverage of CNS anatomy, tumor epidemiology, and molecular pathology to set a strong foundation for individualized treatment planning.
Integrated Imaging and Diagnostic Insight: Examines modern neuroimaging—including PET, advanced MRI, radiomics, and radiogenomics—accompanied by clinical examination techniques tailored to neuro-oncology decision-making.
Multimodal Treatment Guidance: Offers clear, evidence-backed algorithms addressing surgical resection, stereotactic radiosurgery (e.g., Gamma Knife), radiotherapy planning, chemotherapy, targeted therapies, and follow-up care.
Tumor-Specific Algorithms: Delivers concise chapters on adult and pediatric CNS tumors—such as gliomas, meningiomas, ependymomas, medulloblastoma, CNS lymphoma, and spinal cord neoplasms—with treatment guidance specific to each pathology.
Practical and Personalizable: Designed for daily clinical use, with point‑wise summaries and actionable recommendations for both specialists and trainees in neuro-oncology.
Future‑Focused Perspective: Includes emerging research trends in targeted therapy, radiosurgery enhancements, radiogenomic biomarkers, and precision oncology strategies.
Ideal for neuro-oncologists, radiation oncologists, neurosurgeons, oncologists, and trainees seeking a reliable, evidence-based reference. Whether refining clinical protocols or educating team members, this volume empowers healthcare professionals with the depth and clarity needed to deliver personalized, up-to-date neuro-oncology care.
