Three cancer reports to think about: each approaches its objective in a unique manner
Abstract:
Three cancer reports are profiled here. The 2002 Annual Report of INTEGRIS Oncology, Oklahoma City, Okla., was produced in customized versions for two regions. Ochsner Cancer Institute's Annual Report for 2002, New Orleans, focuses on cancer survivors, and the institute's multidisciplinary approach is featured throughout. And, the 2002 report for University Health Care System's Harry W. Jernigan Jr. Cancer Center, Augusta, Ga., uses a horizontal format, glossy paper and lots of white space to convey a "fresh" feeling not often seen in cancer reports.

Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
