TANG C: Pocket Radiation Oncology

Pocket Radiation Oncology

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER! 'Only Sophie Kinsella can make you laugh like this while she's got you crying . . . This is one of the gutsiest moves I've seen from a writer in a long time. I could not put it down.' TAYLOR JENKINS REID 'A deeply funny and affecting love story.' The Guardian 'I laughed. And I cried. And then I thought about the meaning of life. A jewel of a book.' JOJO MOYES 'Emotional and affecting, this gave me a new appreciation for life's small joys.' Red 'The bravest book you'll read all year.' JODI PICOULT ------------------ From Number One bestselling author Sophie Kinsella, an unforgettable story - by turns heartbreaking and life-affirming - of a renowned novelist facing a devastating diagnosis and learning to live and love anew. 'What Does It Feel Like? is fiction, but it is my most autobiographical work to date. Eve's story is my story.' - SOPHIE KINSELLA Eve is a successful novelist who wakes up one day in a hospital bed with no memory of how she got there. Her husband, never far from her side, explains that she has had an operation to remove the large, malignant tumour growing in her brain. As Eve learns to walk, talk, and write again - and as she wrestles with her diagnosis, and how and when to explain it to her beloved children - she begins to recall what's most important to her: long walks with her husband's hand clasped firmly around her own, family game nights and always buying that dress when she sees it. Recounted in brief anecdotes, each one is an attempt to answer the type of impossible questions recognizable to anyone navigating the labyrinth of grief. This extraordinary novella is a celebration of life, shot through with warmth and humour - it will both break your heart and put it back together again. 'Why did I write such a personal book? I have always processed my life through writing. Hiding behind my fictional characters, I have always turned my own life into a narrative. It is my version of therapy, maybe. Writing is my happy place, and writing this book, although tough going at times, was immensely satisfying and therapeutic for me.' - SOPHIE KINSELLA ------------------ 'I was gripped and moved and I loved every word.' LISA JEWELL 'Sophie Kinsella's final autobiographical novella inspired me to step out of my comfort zone. I'll be forever grateful to this incredible woman.' FREIDA McFADDEN 'A beautiful love story and a glowing beacon of hope.' JENNY COLGAN 'Heartbreaking yet hopeful, this life-affirming read encourages us all to take life by the horns.' Prima 'Of all the books I have read about living with cancer this is by far the best. Beautifully written, profound and deeply moving.' HENRY MARSH Sophie Kinsella, Number 1 Sunday Times bestseller, June 2024 Sophie Kinsella, Sunday Times bestseller, October 2024

What Does it Feel Like?

The first book to focus on pediatric oncology for pharmacists comes to its second edition. This edition brings updates to include new drugs, approaches, and techniques, as well as new chapters, such as "Post-Pandemic Pediatric Oncology Pharmacy," "Cardiotoxicity in Pediatric Oncohematology," and "Pediatric Oncological and Hematological Treatment of Children in Hormone Therapy for Gender Dysphoria."
 
Publications on chemotherapy in children are still scarce, and pharmacists often struggle to find the information they need because it is spread across many articles, not published, or dispersed among clinical information aimed at other professionals. Pediatric Oncologic Pharmacy is an area where increasingly specific knowledge is required in daily practice. Oncopediatric books do not address topics unique to pharmacy — such as the handling of cytotoxic drugs for children, analysis of oncopediatric prescriptions, clinical pharmacy in oncopediatrics, pharmaceutical care in the oncopediatric area, and other subjects that are of exclusive interest to these professionals, but no less essential for excellent therapy. Addressing this need, the purpose of this second edition is to be an updated guideline for all subjects that pediatric oncology pharmacists need to know to work in this area. 
 
It is an essential guide for pediatric oncology pharmacists, clinical pharmacists, pharmaceutical residents who work with drug therapy in children, and pharmaceutical researchers. It is a handbook to assist in daily practice and is essential to Pediatric Oncology/Hematology Institutions.

Classification, Management, and Treatment

Spine and Spinal Cord Tumors

The dogma that brain function relied on the cortex has dominated clinical neurology, neurosurgery and psychiatry for the last 100 years. Since the start of the 2000s, it has become evident that brain function is orchestrated as a network through white matter connections. This framework provides an understanding of brain function and dysfunction, and has radically changed how neurosurgical resections are performed. There is currently no manual for clinicians to visualize this functional anatomy in a fast, easy and user-friendly way. This is particularly important for senior clinicians who may have an understanding of cortical anatomy but may struggle with newly described white matter connections as they may now be visualized with MRI, and also for trainees who are learning the subject of applied neuro-anatomy. With this book, we aim to bridge this gap.


 


In 1995 Jackson and Duncan produced "MRI Neuroanatomy: a new angle on the brain" using the best clinical MRI available at the time and did not demonstrate white matter tracts. This was very well received, and it is time now to produce an atlas that shows the 3D anatomy of gray and white matter to contemporary standards.


 


This atlas is based on a high-quality MRI of a healthy subject which resembles the type of imaging is regularly available to clinicians. It is structured in sections (cortical anatomy, subcortical anatomy, and network anatomy) that are intended to guide clinicians from the classical cortical paradigms into a network neuroscience perspective. The 2D orthogonal slices are organized in two orientations:


 


(A) following the plane of the anterior and posterior commissure, as has been traditionally used in stereotactic atlases


(B) following the plane of the hippocampus, as is commonly used in clinical epilepsy practice.


 


The first part shows the 3D anatomy of the cerebral hemisphere, deep nuclei, brainstem and cerebellum.


 


The second part shows the same brain cut in 2D orthogonal slices (axial, coronal, sagittal) with a raw T1-weighted image, accompanied by a labelled image showing the gross anatomy of the brain and grey matter structures and, also, the labelled white matter tracts in that slice. This is particularly relevant for neurosurgeons, who will be able to appreciate before planning a resection the relationship between each tract's trajectory and the gray matter. This will also benefit neurologists, enabling clarity as to how single lesions can cause multiple disconnection and impact on different functions and behaviours.


 


The third part demonstrates the 3D anatomy of the major white matter tracts in the brain, to indicate how distant lesions can impact the same function.
