Because of its relative rarity and favorable outcome, it has not been feasible to assess medical interventions for thyroid cancer using randomized prospective trials.
'Thyroid Cancer, edited by James A. Fagin, comprehensively discusses all the important issues related to this subject. This book will appeal to a broad spectrm of researchers and practitioners, including endocrinologists, nuclear-medicine specialists, and oncologists. As an endocrinologist facing the management of thyroid cancer daily, I enjoyed reading this book and learned from it.' Furio Pacini in The New England Journal of Medicine, 341:26 (1999)
