The Essential Guide to Managing Tumors of the Central Nervous System

New York, NY, August 14, 2014 --(PR.com)-- "Neuro-Oncology: The Essentials, Third Edition," recently published by Thieme, is a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental science and core clinical concepts behind the successful multidisciplinary management of patients with brain and spine tumors. Among the updates to this new edition are eight new chapter topics, including: Endoscopic Approaches, Pediatric Supratentorial Tumors, and Neuro-Oncology in the Developing World. The book begins with basic science, progresses to clinical applications, and includes a robust section on specific tumor types.

“We believe this book has greatly improved on the first two editions and that it will become a useful resource for the many hard-working physicians engaged in the challenging job of managing patients with tumors involving the neurologic system … We sincerely hope both the learning of neuro-oncology and its practice are facilitated by this book.” – From the Author Preface

This new edition is an invaluable reference for all neurosurgeons, neurologists, and oncologists, as well as residents and fellows, and it will be a treasured volume in their medical libraries for years to come.
