The book provides information about different types and stages of cancers and their subtypes with their respective molecular mechanisms, etiology, histopathology and cellular origins of cancer. The book also provides detailed information about cancer incidence, mortality, different type of technologies both bio and nano employed in cancer diagnosis and screening and their applications in cancer therapies. The book will serve the purpose to impart knowledge to its readers about molecular mechanisms of cancer, diagnosis and therapies along with different computational techniques used on a single platform.
The chapters include a broad and integrated perspective on cancer related topics. The book covers both conventional and emerging techniques employed in cancer screening and diagnosis including imaging, biomarker and electrochemical nanosensor based approaches with detailed information on sensor development. Similarly, the book also covers the mechanisms of different conventional and emerging herbal & nano therapies used in cancer treatment. The authors then discuss about applications of different computational and mathematical tools such as machine learning methods that can be employed in cancer diagnosis and therapy at the level of personalized medicine.
The target readers for the book include university students, course lectures, researchers and industrialists working in the fields of cancer biology, medicine, and pharmacology.
