Joining Efforts to Improve Data Quality and Harmonization Among European Population-Based Cancer Registries
Population-based cancer registries are an essential information source for quantifying the impact of cancer in a population and its evolution, planning and evaluation of cancer control policies and healthcare systems. In the last decades, the information provided by cancer registries has improved dramatically in quality and quantity. Technological advances and record linkage have contributed to data improvement. Therefore, clinical data collected by cancer registries such as stage, treatment, co-morbidity, etc. contribute to treatment effectiveness assessment and identification of inequality in health care access at the population level. The reliability and utility of the information provided by cancer registries depend on the quality of the data collected. On the other hand, cancer registries' data harmonisation is crucial for data use and comparability.
Rare Cancer Agenda 2030
RARE CANCER AGENDA 2030 Ten Recommendations from the EU Joint Action on Rare Cancers 1. Rare cancers are the rare diseases of oncology 2. Rare cancers should be monitored 3. Health systems should exploit networking 4. Medical education should exploit and serve healthcare networking 5. Research should be fostered by networking and should take into account an expected higher degree of uncertainty 6. Patient-physician shared clinical decision-making should be especially valued 7. Appropriate state-of-the-art instruments should be developed in rare cancer 8. Regulation on rare cancers should tolerate a higher degree of uncertainty 9. Policy strategies on rare cancers and sustainability of interventions should be based on networking 10. Rare cancer patients should be engaged
TNM Supplement
The Union for International Cancer Controls (UICC) TNM classification system is the most widely used cancer classification and staging system in the world. It is used to describe the anatomical extent of disease and it is essential to patient care, research and cancer control. This fifth edition of the TNM Supplement: A Commentary of Uniform Use offers practitioners a wealth of material intended to complement the systems day-to-day use. The volume features: Updated definitions of terms used in cancer staging. New sections on carcinomas of the thymus, sarcomas of the spine and pelvis and soft tissue sarcomas of the head and neck, and comprehensive updates to the head and neck carcinomas, carc...

Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Cancer
This book describes the pathways of dissemination of primary liver, biliary, and pancreatic neoplasms and proposes a practical and clinically driven approach to their imaging. The typical dissemination pathways for hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, exocrine pancreatic carcinoma, and neuroendocrine pancreatic tumors are systematically reviewed, and more unusual pathways are also documented. The content is presented in an extremely schematic way, with numerous high-quality graphical illustrations and multimodality images (US, CT, MRI, and PET) that are accompanied by clear explanatory text. The clinical significance of findings and potential therapeutic options are explained whenever appropriate. In addition, relevant background information is provided on the role of morphopathological drivers of cancer spread and anatomy.
TNM Atlas
This book presents the illustrated version of the TNM Classification of Malignant Tumours, Seventh Edition, promoting the uniform application of the TNM classification in cancer practice. Now featuring beautiful, useful full-color medical artwork, this book is designed as an aid for the practical application of the TNM classification system by illustrating the T and N categories in clear, easily understood graphics. The aim of this presentation is twofold: to reach a more standardized understanding and documentation of the anatomic spread of tumours, and to further enhance the dissemination and use of the TNM classification.
Redesigning Life
This book brings together a philosophical analysis of life, politics, and technology with a biopolitical critique of the way genetic enhancement technologies have been dealt with in liberal moral and political philosophy. Inspired by the work of Heidegger, Arendt, and Stiegler, the author outlines a responsible biopolitics of genetic technologies.
