Cancer metastases. Causes, diagnosis, treatment methods.
The causes of metastases are not yet fully understood, but modern technologies make it possible to accurately detect them and effectively treat them with drug therapy and surgical methods. Metastases can develop rapidly, sometimes they may not appear at all, and in some cases, they may appear even after treatment and surgical removal of the tumor. Are there risk factors for metastases? How can new lesions be detected early? How is therapy selected, and how does it affect new lesions? Why can metastases appear even after treatment? Vladimir Konstantinovich Lyadov, Head of Oncology Department No. 4 at the First Oncology Hospital in Moscow, MD, Associate Professor of the Department of Oncology at the Russian Medical Academy of Postgraduate Education, oncologist, and surgeon, will discuss this and much more in a live broadcast.
