Produktbeschreibung
Gastric cancer is the cancer, which develops in the lining of the stomach. Most stomach cancers are gastric carcinomas. Some of its early symptoms include upper abdominal pain, heartburn, nausea and loss of appetite. In its later stages, the cancer presents itself with yellowing of the skin and the whites of the eye, weight loss, vomiting and difficulty swallowing. More than 60% of gastric cancers are caused due to infection by Helicobacter pylori. If the cancer is detected and targeted early, it can be potentially cured. A gastroscopic exam involving the insertion of a fibre optic cable into the stomach, upper GI series and CT scanning of the abdomen can reveal gastric cancer. Treatments typically include a combination of radiation therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy and surgery. This book provides comprehensive insights into the current status and future perspectives of gastric cancer. It elucidates new techniques of assessment, diagnosis and management of gastric cancer in a multidisciplinary manner. Scientists and students actively engaged in oncology will find this book full of crucial and unexplored concepts.
