Product Description

The American Joint Committee on Cancer's Cancer Staging Manual is used by physicians throughout the world to diagnose cancer and determine the extent to which cancer has progressed. All of the TNM staging information included in this Seventh Edition is uniform between the AJCC (American Joint Committee on Cancer) and the UICC (International Union Against Cancer).

In addition to the information found in the Handbook, the Manual provides standardized data forms for each anatomic site, which can be utilized as permanent patient records, enabling clinicians and cancer research scientists to maintain consistency in evaluating the efficacy of diagnosis and treatment. The CD-ROM packaged with each Manual contains printable copies of each of the book’s 57 Staging Forms.

5 out of 5 stars A must have   November 23, 2009
D. Ross
An indispensible book for pathologists, oncologists, cancer surgeons, tumor registries. Use of color blocks enhances readability.


5 out of 5 stars Indispensible   January 3, 2010
Boo Katers (North Carolina)
Indispensible reference for anyone who needs to accurately stage cancer patients. Two nice features are: 1) a box early in each chapter tells how this edition of staging differs from the prior, and 2) the included CD allows you to print the TNM staging for each disease site.


5 out of 5 stars A manual for every pathologist   February 2, 2010
Visa (Greece)
Highly detailed description of the staging of the neoplasms and especially in the matter of surgical vs non-surgical margins for the determination of the R category for residual tumor. Includes the new TNM system for neuroendocrine tumors (lung, intestine, pancreas etc), modified information about Tumor Deposits in colorectal cancer (changes the "smooth contour" consensus) and new definitions in Melanoma report (ulceration, micro-satellite deposits etc).
A truly great effort to make Pathology a true Consensus among Pathologists and less a matter of personal opinions.



5 out of 5 stars Absolutely essential   February 11, 2010
Wilson Chick (Pasadena CA)
An absolutely essential book for surgical pathologists. Clear explanation with summary of the difference between this one and the previous edition.


5 out of 5 stars Personal experience from using this in clincal practice.   February 18, 2010
Resident2007 (USA)
As a pathology resident in surgical pathology I use this on a daily basis. CAP derives their cancer reporting protocols from these reporting guidelines. The book provides clear and concise information allowing me to gross surgical specimens and then generate a report relevant to the surgeon.
