Encyclopedia of Hereditary Cancer: A Desktop Reference gives insights into this young and rapidly expanding field that combines oncology and genetics to achieve risk reduction, early detection, family risk management, and identification targeted treatments. While genetics and oncology are both well-developed knowledge areas, their combination in hereditary cancer yields an opportunity for new works that systemize knowledge for current researchers, practitioners, and students. The book exams 371 topics through the lens of hereditary cancer. There are no similar books that presents information in this manner. This reference work contains a complete list of terms and definitions which can be easily reference by researchers and clinicians working in this field. Provides conceptual and factual treatments of 371 topics in hereditary cancerGives quick access to a comprehensive guide on Hereditary CancerUseful reference for researchers and clinicians INDICE: Activating Variant IMAGE CONCEPT include hemizygous Allele Allele frequency Allelic disorder Allelic dropout Alteration/variant/ mutation Alternate parentage Alu repeats Amino acid Amplicon.
