William Lydiatt, M.D. and Perry Johnson, M.D., have worked with
thousands of head and neck cancer patients. They understand the
emotional turmoil patients and families go through after a cancer
diagnosis, and they know that keeping patients informed relieves
stress.
Topics they cover in this book include: getting a diagnosis, the
importance of early detection, and staging cancer in order to determine
the best treatments. They also discuss treatments, including surgery,
radiation, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, and
experimental treatments through clinical trials.
