Cancer affects millions globally, impacting not just mortality but also health-related quality of life, economic status, and overall well-being for patients and their families. The US National Cancer Institute established a working group to assess the scientific state of measuring these diverse impacts. This volume presents the findings and recommendations of 35 international experts. Originally published in 2005, this edition offers a thorough yet practical examination of approaches to comprehensively measure the burden of cancer and the efficacy of interventions.
