Atlas of Breast Cancer
Taking into account the many developments in the field of breast cancer research since the first edition, this color atlas addresses breast oncology in broad terms, with contributions written by surgeons, oncologists, pathologists, radiologists, and other breast cancer experts from the US. Covers risk factors, epidemiology, and development of breast cancer; normal anatomy and development; prevention; breast imaging; surgery; breast biopsy processing; benign breast disorders; pathology; radiotherapy; the principles of systemic therapy; adjuvant systemic therapy; and locally advanced, locally recurrent, and metastatic breast cancer. Visuals play a significant role, with many color photographs, tables, charts, graphs, and figures. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
Evolution of Translational Omics
Technologies collectively called omics enable simultaneous measurement of an enormous number of biomolecules; for example, genomics investigates thousands of DNA sequences, and proteomics examines large numbers of proteins. Scientists are using these technologies to develop innovative tests to detect disease and to predict a patient's likelihood of responding to specific drugs. Following a recent case involving premature use of omics-based tests in cancer clinical trials at Duke University, the NCI requested that the IOM establish a committee to recommend ways to strengthen omics-based test development and evaluation. This report identifies best practices to enhance development, evaluation, and translation of omics-based tests while simultaneously reinforcing steps to ensure that these tests are appropriately assessed for scientific validity before they are used to guide patient treatment in clinical trials.
