Gastrointestinal Oncology: A Critical Multidisciplinary Team
Approach is the first evidence-based reference text designed
for the multidisciplinary team of medical professionals involved in
the investigation, diagnosis, and management of patients with
gastrointestinal cancer. Written and edited by leading
international experts in the field it sets the standard in clinical
practice for dealing with esophageal, gastric, intestinal, colonic,
hepatobiliary, pancreatic, and other GI tumors.

The book is divided into twenty-five clinical chapters each
addressing the specific cancers affecting the gastrointestinal
tract. Each chapter is written by a team of authors, with each
contributor specially chosen to represent a different role in the
MDT. This multidisciplinary team approach reflects the current care
of GI cancer patients and enables clinical decision making and
patient management. All the chapters have been tried and tested in
MDT meetings in leading cancer centers around the world.

Gastrointestinal Oncology: A Critical Multidisciplinary Team

illustrated throughout with color photographs, line drawings, and
diagrams. This authoritative and practical resource is an essential
reference for the entire MDT including gastroenterologists,
hepatologists, GI surgeons, medical oncologists, radiation
therapists, interventional radiologists, pathologists, specialist
nurses, and clinical scientists.
