For many women in developing countries, such as sub-Saharan Africa, south and south-east Asia, and central and south America, there is a high risk of cervical cancer, but a lack of effective programmes to detect and treat such a problem. This introductory manual is intended to simply the learning of colposcopy (a diagnostic and evaluation method for cervical intraepithelia neoplasia, or cervical cancer).

This colposcopy manual was developed in the context of the cervical cancer screening research studies of the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and the related technical support provided to national programs. It is thus a highly comprehensive manual, both for the training of new colposcopists and for the continuing education and reorientation of those who are more experienced. This manual offers a valuable learning resource, incorporating recent developments in the understanding of the etiology and pathogenesis of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), as well as in colposcopy and cervical pathology. Expertise in performing satisfactory, safe, and accurate colposcopic examinations requires high competence in the technical, interpretive, and cognitive aspects, and the capability to develop pragmatic and effective management plans and treatment. This comprehensive and concise manual covers all these aspects and serves as a useful handbook for acquiring the necessary skills for the visual recognition and interpretation of colposcopic findings and for developing the personal and professional attributes required for competence in colposcopy.

Most women who die from cervical cancer, particularly in developing countries, are in the prime of their life. They may be raising children, caring for their family, and contributing to the social and economic life of their town or village. Their death is both a personal tragedy, and a sad and unnecessary loss to their family and their community. Unnecessary, because there is compelling evidence, as this Guide makes clear, that cervical cancer is one of the most preventable and treatable forms of cancer, as long as it is detected early and managed effectively. Unfortunately, the majority of women in developing countries still do not have access to cervical cancer prevention programmes. The consequence is that, often, cervical cancer is not detected until it is too late to be cured. An urgent effort is required if this situation is to be corrected. This Guide is intended to help those responsible for providing services aimed at reducing the burden posed by cervical cancer for women, communities and health systems. It focuses on the knowledge and skills needed by health care providers, at different levels of care.

Provides a framework for oncologic radiology development that consists of multidisciplinary consensus protocols regarding the selection of imaging modalities, techniques, and interpretive criteria used in the diagnosis and management of malignant diseases. The imaging of each tumor is outlined according to the specific clinical setting--screening, diagnosis, staging, postoperative baseline evaluation, treatment planning, response assessment after systemic therapy, and follow-up and surveillance. The assessment of treatment effects and complications is discussed in the appropriate settings. Major references are cited by tumor and are annotated. "Rationale" insertions have been made to further describe yield and risk-benefit philosophies in specific oncologic situations. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a technique used in biomedical imaging and radiology to visualize internal structures of the body. Because MRI provides excellent contrast between different soft tissues, the technique is especially useful for diagnostic imaging of the brain, muscles, and heart.In the past 20 years, MRI technology has improved si
