Cancer Biology and Therapeutics

Breast Cancer Nursing

Breast Cancer is the most common cause of death in women. We first need to understand how cancer develops in the body for reducing breast cancer risk.  Current understanding of the biology of breast cancer is very important and its relevance to treating and preventing the disease. Breast cancer is not a one disease. For example, understanding that breast tissue of girls and young women is especially sensitive to cancer causing agents can help direct risk reduction efforts to these groups. Making sense of cancer denotes taking a step toward more apprised decisions about our bodies, ourselves and our environment. This Session Includes Biology of Breast Cancer, Role of Nurse in Breast Cancer Care, Breast Cancer Treatment Side Effects, Innovative Therapeutic Approaches, and Optimal Breast Cancer Pathology Organization.
