Oncology Massage: An integrative approach to cancer care
by Janet Penny Rebecca SturgeonIn Oncology Massage - an integrative approach to cancer care the authors have created a textbook which will provide both experienced and inexperienced therapists with a resource to expand their knowledge and understanding of working with people with cancer. Cancer occurrence and survivorship are now so common that every massage therapist will at some time work with clients who have been through cancer treatment. The short and long-term effects of biomedical cancer treatment require massage therapy adaptations to pressure, site, position and duration to provide safe and effective treatments. Informed massage therapists can support the body to promote overall wellness as well as identify the underlying secondary effects of cancer treatment that contribute to physical dysfunction.Oncology Massage: An Integrative Approach to Cancer Care provides massage therapists with essential information for:Treatment planning based on the physiology of cancer and cancer treatmentsCritical, thoughtful treatment decision makingConsideration of the psychosocial effects of cancerEnhancing therapist self-awareness and building a therapeutic relationship.The information is presented in a clear and simple format with plentiful use of illustrations and information boxes which allows it to be used both as a learning tool for those new to the field of oncology massage and as a resource for quick referral when working with new patients.The techniques of massage therapy change very little; it is the knowledge and understanding of their use that distinguishes a massage therapist. Oncology Massage is unusual in that it includes contributions not only from a range of experienced practitioners but also from people with cancer who have received massage during and after cancer treatment. This feedback from clients provides an invaluable addition to the understanding of how massage can be used as a safe and effective part of cancer care.

Oncolytic Viruses: Methods and Protocols (Methods in Molecular Biology #797)
by Ta-Chiang Liu Stephen H. Thorne David H. KirnSince the first report of an engineered oncolytic virus, there has been a continuing and steady increase of interest in the field, and while bench research remains vital for the translation of research in this field, its success depends on breakthroughs in clinical studies. Oncolytic Viruses: Methods and Protocols describes the construction and purification of capsid-modified adenoviruses as well as oncolytic adenoviruses, presents protocols for many individual virus species including engineering and preparation of oncolytic HSV, propagation, purification, and in vivo testing of oncolytic VSV, details properties of oncolytic reovirus and NDV, and describes the generation and testing of next generation of oncolytic vaccinia virus. As the host immune system plays a critical role in determining efficacy of oncolytic viruses, two chapters are devoted to the study of immune response. Recent advances in stem cell research have led the field in two distinct directions: the use of stem cells as carrier vehicles for oncolytic viruses and the targeting of cancer stem cells. As such, the volume describes the use of explant tissue samples from patients to potentially provide useful information predicting responses prior to clinical translation. Written in the successful Methods in Molecular BiologyTM series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols, and notes on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and easily accessible, Oncolytic Viruses: Methods and Protocols seeks to serve both professionals and novices with its well-honed methodologies in an effort to further our knowledge of this essential and vital field.

Oncothermia: Principles and Practices
by Andras Szasz Nora Szasz Oliver SzaszOncothermia is the next generation medical innovation that delivers selective, controlled and deep energy for cancer treatment. The basic principles for oncothermia stem from oncological hyperthermia, the oldest approach to treating cancer. Nevertheless, hyperthermia has been wrought with significant controversy, mostly stemming from shortcomings of controlled energy delivery. Oncothermia has been able to overcome these insufficiencies and prove to be a controlled, safe and efficacious treatment option. This book is the first attempt to elucidate the theory and practice of oncothermia, based on rigorous mathematical and biophysical analysis, not centered on the temperature increase. It is supported by numerous in-vitro and in-vivo findings and twenty years of clinical experience. This book will help scientists, researchers and medical practitioners in understanding the scientific and conceptual underpinnings of oncothermia and will add another valuable tool in the fight against cancer. Professor Andras Szasz is the inventor of oncothermia and the Head of St Istvan University's Biotechnics Department in Hungary. He has published over 300 papers and lectured at various universities around the world. Dr. Oliver Szasz is the managing director of Oncotherm, the global manufacturer and distributor of medical devices for cancer treatment used in Europe & Asia since the late 1980s. Dr. Nora Szasz is currently a management consultant in healthcare for McKinsey & Co.
Onderbeenklachten: In de praktijk van (sport)fysiotherapeuten, trainers en verzorgers (Orthopedische casuïstiek)
by Koos Van NugterenOnderbeenpijn is vaak moeilijk te diagnosticeren. Er kan sprake zijn van een orthopedische aandoening bijvoorbeeld door overbelasting. Er zijn echter veel andere oorzaken bekend van onderbeenpijn zoals vasculaire of reumatische afwijkingen. Daar komt nog bij dat de achterliggende pathologie zich niet altijd in het onderbeen bevindt maar meer naar proximaal. Dit alles kan voor de orthopedisch georiënteerde (para)medicus verraderlijke valkuilen opleveren. Daarom worden er in deze uitgave van ‘Orthopedische Casuïstiek’ naast orthopedische letsels/blessures ook enkele andere vormen van pathologie besproken die onderbeenpijn kunnen veroorzaken.Aan bod komen: stressfracturen, compartimentsyndroom, mediaal tibiaal stresssyndroom, spierscheur, claudicatio intermittens, a. poplitea compressiesyndroom, diepe veneuze trombose, paralyse van onderbeenspieren door lumbale pathologie, fibrose in de kuit, syndesmoseletsel van de enkel, peesrupturen, proximale tibiofibulaire artritis, tendinopathieën van de achillespees en de mm. peronei, en verschillende enkelfracturen.Zoals gebruikelijk in de boekenreeks van Orthopedische Casuïstiek wordt ieder onderwerp besproken aan de hand van patiëntencasuïstiek uit de dagelijkse praktijk.De tekst is rijk geïllustreerd met educatieve tekeningen en foto’s. Bijlage I achterin het boek toont een handige tabel van moeilijk te differentiëren aandoeningen met hun symptomen. Bijlage II toont twee oefenprogramma’s ter behandeling van de mid-portion achillespeestendinopathie en bijlage III geeft een overzicht van de innervatie en segmentatie van het onderbeen.Het boek is in het bijzonder bestemd voor (sport)fysiotherapeuten, kinesitherapeuten, verzorgers van een sportvereniging, (sport)artsen en orthopeden.
