Breast Cancer Management and Molecular Medicine
Molecular-based medicine is taking center stage due to the increasing knowledge of breast cancer molecular biology. Treatment tailoring is no longer a dream for the future, but the main goal of current research. This book provides an overview of the most recent techniques, agents and approaches for...
