Product Description
This up-to-date and comprehensive set of two CD-ROM discs provides a superb collection of official Federal government documents on stomach (gastric) cancer: signs and symptoms, diagnosis, lab tests, treatment and management options, and ongoing clinical research. Every aspect of the disease is thoroughly covered. Stomach cancer forms in tissues lining the stomach and is also called gastric cancer. The stomach is a J-shaped organ in the upper abdomen. It is part of the digestive system, which processes nutrients (vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, fats, proteins, and water) in foods that are eaten and helps pass waste material out of the body. Food moves from the throat to the stomach through a hollow, muscular tube called the esophagus. After leaving the stomach, partly-digested food passes into the small intestine and then into the large intestine. Coverage includes treatment, including surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, and vaccine therapy.For patients, practical information is provided in clearly written patient education documents. For medical professionals, doctor references and texts have detailed technical information and clinical background material. Documents from the National Cancer Institute, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Food and Drug Administration (FDA), National Institutes of Health (NIH), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Medline, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), and Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) are included. In addition to disease-specific information, there is extensive coverage of the broad subject of cancer and its prevention and treatment (surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, advanced treatments, managing side effects). There is no other reference that is as fast, convenient, and portable - everything you need to know, from the federal sources you trust.Since navigating the Internet to find medical information can be confusing, our exclusive "Guide to Leading Medical Websites 2009" has updated links to the 67 best sites! Weblinks let you quickly check for the latest clinical updates directly from the government and the best commercial portals, news sites, reference/textbook/non-commercial portals, and health organizations.Comprehensive cancer coverage includes: FDA Office of Oncology Drug Products, Oncology Tools - approved drugs, patient liaison * Dictionary of Cancer Terms (4000 items) * Division of Cancer Biology * Cancer Bulletin - archive of informative articles from NCI publication since 2004 * Cancers by Body Location, System * A-Z list of cancers * Clinical Trials * Complementary and Alternative Medicine * Coping - Complications and Side Effects - fatigue, pain, cardiopulmonary syndromes, cognitive disorders and delirium; fever, sweats, hot flashes; gastrointestinal complications, hypercalcemia; lymphedema; pruritus; sexuality and reproduction; sleep; nutrition; eating hints; emotions, anxiety, depression, adjustment, post-traumatic stress disorder; substance abuse; transitional care planning; radiation, home care, when cancer returns; Care for the Caregiver; Survivorship - end of life issues, advance directives, coping with advanced cancer, Hospice, Loss, Grief, and Bereavement * Division of Cancer Treatment and Diagnosis * Drug Development and Approval * Approved Oncology Drugs * Drug Dictionary - technical definitions and synonyms * Drug Information Summaries * Factsheets by cancer type, risk factors and possible causes, prevention, detection, diagnosis, therapy, support, coping, resources, tobacco and smoking cessation * Prevention, Genetics * Publications - specific cancers, treatment, trials, coping, testing, risks, nutrition * Screening and Testing * Support - organizations, finances and insurance * Chemotherapy, Radiation Therapy, Surgery, Cryosurgery, Laser, Hyperthermia, Targeted ...

In addition to disease-specific information, there is extensive coverage of the broad subject of cancer and its prevention and treatment along with current cancer research projects.

A unique feature is the inclusion of the results of a database search using the Combined Health Information Database (CHID).

Since navigating the Internet to find additional non-governmental medical information can be confusing and difficult, we've also provided our exclusive "Guide to Leading Medical Websites" with links to 80 of the best sites for general health and medical information! By using weblinks built into the documents reproduced on the CD-ROM, you can quickly and easily check for the latest clinical updates directly from the government.

In all, the disc has over 44,000 pages reproduced using Adobe Acrobat PDF software - allowing direct viewing on Windows and Apple Macintosh systems. Reader software is included on the CD.

Our CD-ROMs are designed to provide a convenient user-friendly reference work, utilizing the benefits of the Acrobat format to uniformly present thousands of pages that can be rapidly reviewed or printed without untold hours of tedious searching and downloading. Vast archives of important public domain government information that might otherwise remain inaccessible are available for instant review no matter where you are. (Information on this CD-ROM is not a substitute for professional medical advice; of course, readers are urged to consult with a professional health care provider for any suspected illness.) This book-on-a-disc makes a great reference work and educational tool for patients and their families, physicians, and other medical professionals. ... Read more

WASTE OF MONEY!
This CD is merely a PDF of thousands of web pages.

Additionally, it is not even well organized.For instance, on of the files is over 2000 pages long, without a table of contents.

Whoever publishes this should be ashamed for taking money from cancer patients and their families. ... Read more
