Different fields of application ? community, hospital, and home based ? are examined, and detailed attention is paid to the use of tele-oncology in rural/extreme rural settings and in developing countries. The impact of new technologies and the opportunities afforded by the social web are both discussed. The concluding chapters consider eLearning in relation to cancer care and assess the scope for eDucation to improve prevention. No medical condition can shatter people?s lives as cancer does today, and the need to develop strategies to reduce the disease burden and improve quality of life is paramount. Readers will find this new volume in Springer?s TELe Health series to be a rich source of information on the important contribution that can be made by telemedicine in achieving these goals. 410 0$aTELe-Health,$x2198-6037 606 $aOncology   606 $aHealth informatics 606 $aUser interfaces (Computer systems) 606 $aMedical education 606 $aOncology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33160 606 $aHealth Informatics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H28009 606 $aUser Interfaces and Human Computer Interaction$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I18067 606 $aMedical Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O26000 615 0$aOncology  . 615 0$aHealth informatics. 615 0$aUser interfaces (Computer systems). 615 0$aMedical education. 615 14$aOncology. 615 24$aHealth Informatics. 615 24$aUser Interfaces and Human Computer Interaction. 615 24$aMedical Education. 676 $a005.437 676 $a4019 676 $a502.85 676 $a610 676 $a610.71 676 $a616994 702 $aGatti$b Giovanna$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPravettoni$b Gabriella$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aCapello$b Fabio$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300234103321 996 $aTele-oncology$91811494 997 $aUNINA
