The book is aimed at fostering the multidisciplinary approach to cancer treatment which was correctly defined by UICC, FECS and others "as the keystone for cancer research and treatment". Many medical schools still do not provide integrated teaching in cancer medicine and medical students knowledge on the treatment of malignant diseases is often acquired from specialists whose main interest is information exclusively about their specialization. Bologna has a longstanding tradition both in connecting research with treatment and in using a multidisciplinary approach in cancer treatment. The book is based on this Bologna tradition and intends to promote multidisciplinary thinking and to avoid the drifting apart of the specialistic disciplines in cancer medicines.

Abstract
The book is aimed at fostering the multidisciplinary approach to cancer treatment which was correctly defined by UICC, FECS and others "as the keystone for cancer research and treatment". Many medical schools still do not provide integrated teaching in cancer medicine and medical students knowledge on the treatment of malignant diseases is often acquired from specialists whose main interest is information exclusively about their specialization. Bologna has a longstanding tradition both in connecting research with treatment and in using a multidisciplinary approach in cancer treatment. The book is based on this Bologna tradition and intends to promote multidisciplinary thinking and to avoid the drifting apart of the specialistic disciplines in cancer medicines.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
