Palliative medicine deals with the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of symptoms that accompany progressive and life-threatening diseases. As a new field of knowledge, it is developing rapidly, with a need to update the information that relates to it.
We are handing over to the readers a much-awaited, much-needed publication prepared by a group of well-known and respected authors. The book is adapted to the new specialisation programme, in which the issues have been developed based on the latest world literature.
This publication will be of interest to physicians specialising in palliative medicine, oncologists, oncology nurses as well as medical and health science students.
