Breast Cancer Sourcebook, Third Edition, provides updated information about breast health and breast cancer risk factors. It explains the different types of breast cancer, including breast cancer associated with different genes, inflammatory breast cancer, Paget disease of the nipple, and breast cancer in men. It discusses how screening for breast cancer with mammography, clinical breast exams, and self-exams may help doctors find and treat cancer early when treatments are more likely to be effective. Cancer treatment options, including surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and biological therapy are described, and the emotional concerns of women in and after treatment are addressed. A section on research advances offers information from recent clinical trials, and the book concludes with a glossary and directories of resources for additional help and support.
