Breast Cancer: Global Quality Care de Didier Verhoeven

Breast Cancer: Global Quality Care

Didier Verhoeven, Cary S. Kaufman, Pankaj G. Roy, Sabine Siesling
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 mar 2026
Breast cancer centres, whether new or well established, strive to deliver the highest quality care possible within the limits of their financial and personnel resources. While the basics in diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer are well known, delivering, monitoring, and evaluating care remains a challenge for many sites, with cancer care delivery becoming increasing unsustainable in many countries.Now in its second edition, Breast Cancer: Global Quality Care offers a comprehensive guide on how to establish or enhance a breast care unit, regardless of location. Written by a multidisciplinary team of over 130 experts from across 30 countries, it provides practical strategies for delivering high quality integrated breast cancer care tailored to local economics and resources constraints.Covering every component of the care pathway including imaging, surgery, systemic treatment, nursing, and genetic assessment, the book combines theoretical insights with practical guidance. It defines the targets to strive for, methods to assess care, and key recommendations for how to improve within existing limitations. The book also looks beyond the breast care unit to consider broader themes including accreditation and certification, emerging technologies, media, and the role of government in shaping care.This practical guide will be valuable for anyone working in the field of integrated breast cancer care, including breast care clinicians, those new to the field, and policy makers interested in the social, financial, and political aspects of improving breast care quality.

It is free to read on the Oxford Academic platform and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations.
