Multidisciplinary Management of Prostate Cancer

From the book reviews: "This short overview of the multidisciplinary management of prostate cancer focuses on, and advocates for, a team approach. ... This will appeal to a wide audience, including clinicians, diagnostic staff (pathology and radiology) as well as cancer center directors and administrators. It would likely be a reference for those planning to implement a multidisciplinary team approach for prostate cancer. ... this concise book endeavors to argue for the team approach to prostate cancer care, and it accomplishes this goal."
