Cancer: Role of Nutrition, Pathogenesis, Diagnosis and Management
@inproceedings{Kabel2014CancerRO, title={Cancer: Role of Nutrition, Pathogenesis, Diagnosis and Management}, author={Ahmed M. Kabel and Maaly A. Abd Elmaaboud}, year={2014} }
Cancer is characterized by unregulated cell growth. It is one of the most causes of death worldwide. It is attributed to environmental, nutritional and genetic factors. Its clinical presentation varies between local, metastatic and systemic symptoms. Lines of treatment include chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgical removal.
