Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"The authors take the challenge through the chapters and the different most recent references of covering the subject from diagnosis to treatment of both localized and invasive cancer. ... Through out the chapters, one can find accurate information dealing with prostate cancer that will be of crucial help in daily practice. This -book- appears to be an appropriate hand book for the therapist in charge of prostate cancer; mainly the urologist but also the radiation therapist." (B Mathantu and J de Leval, Acta Chirurgica Belgica, Vol. 103 (6), 2003)

"It is a monograph composed by urologists ... all expert in the field of localised prostate cancer. Hence all essential diagnostic and staging procedures are excellently described and discussed. ... This is a really attractive and essential book for all urologists who are learning or already perform radical prostatectomy. ... The videos on the CD-ROM are really instructive and more than complementary to the book. Therefore this monograph is 'a must!'" (European Urology Today, Vol. 14 (2), 2003)
