Introducing the first definitive guide to pain management in the cancer patient

A Doody's Core Title for 2011!

"This book is comprehensive in scope and multidisciplinary in its approach. It is an excellent resource for oncologists, fellows, residents, medical students, oncology nurses, pharmacists, and other healthcare professionals who provide care for people with cancer. 3 Stars."--Doody's Review Service

This pioneering book is the first to provide in-depth coverage of all the interventional and medical strategies needed for effective cancer pain management. Logically organized, this immensely practical guide starts with general principles in cancer pain management, followed by management of specific cancer pain syndromes, unique issues, interventional techniques, and other specialized approaches. Reflecting an approach to pain management developed at the prestigious M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, Cancer Pain Management addresses the full spectrum of cancer pain syndromes and reviews the selection and administration of various treatment options.
