520 _aThis book is an in-depth examination of the current state of the art and new advances in prostate cancer care and offers a fresh perspective with insights from Africa. At its core, the book tackles pivotal questions such as the mechanisms behind prostate cancer development, the significance of early detection, and how diagnostic advancements can lead to personalized treatment plans. It delves into genomic discoveries that are paving the way for targeted therapies and examines how immunotherapy is reshaping treatment paradigms. Furthermore, it explores surgical innovations and the role of radiopharmaceuticals in advancing prostate cancer management. The discussion extends to integrative care models that emphasize holistic patient well-being and strategies for enhancing survivorship. Unique about this book is that the authors provide insights from Africa into the prevalence and management of prostate cancer and place this in a global context. Aimed at healthcare professionals involved in oncology and prostate cancer research, including physicians, nurses and medical researchers, this book serves as an indispensable guide to the basic biological concepts of prostate cancer and its treatment in the clinic.
