Lung CancerLung Cancer
A Guide to Diagnosis and Treatment - Second Edition

Walter J Scott, M.D.

If you have been diagnosed with lung cancer, you are not alone. In fact, according to the American Cancer Society, nearly 223,000 Americans are diagnosed with lung cancer annually. It accounts for nearly 15 percent all newly diagnosed cancers.

If you've been diagnosed with lung cancer, you probably have many questions. You're wondering treatment and prognosis. What medical tests will you need? Which type of treatment will be recommended?     

Walter J. Scott, M.D., has treated thousands of lung cancer patients who have navigated the maze of medical tests and procedures that you now face. He understands how overwhelming this process can be when you are coping with a cancer diagnosis. In Lung CancerA Guide to Diagnosis and Treatment, Dr. Scott helps you understand the process—from getting a diagnosis to going through treatment. He explains such topics as:  

  • symptoms of lung cancer

  • types of lung cancer

  • stages of lung cancer

  • surgical procedures

  • chemotherapy—how it works, side effects

  • radiation therapy—types of radiation, side effects

  • coping emotionally

"...this book is highly recommended, particularly for those newly diagnosed with lung cancer."
