Abstract:
Many patients see cancer as one disease whereas it is a collection of diseases with several common features. This month's study paper looks at the biology of cancer and explores the classification and staging of its complex disease processes. Such information is useful for all nurses, who frequently care for patients undergoing tests for cancer or receiving treatment.
