For the Amazon product page, I'd make it tighter and more reader-focused:
A clear, reassuring guide to understanding bladder cancer-from diagnosis and treatment to follow-up and life afterwards.
A diagnosis of bladder cancer can bring uncertainty and a bewildering amount of unfamiliar terminology. What is a TURBT? What does BCG actually do? What is the difference between low-risk and high-risk bladder cancer? And when might removal of the bladder be necessary?
In Understanding Bladder Cancer, consultant urologist Mr Antoine Kass-Iliyya explains the bladder cancer journey in straightforward, accessible language.
Written specifically for patients and their families, this book helps make sense of the information you may hear in the clinic without overwhelming you with medical jargon.
It explains:
- The symptoms of bladder cancer and the importance of blood in the urine
- Cystoscopy, scans and other investigations
- TURBT and what happens during the procedure
- How bladder cancer is graded, staged and classified by risk
- Low-, intermediate-, high- and very-high-risk disease
- Non-muscle-invasive and muscle-invasive bladder cancer
- Intravesical chemotherapy
- BCG immunotherapy and why it is used
- Surveillance and repeated cystoscopies
- Radical cystectomy and urinary diversion
- Chemotherapy and radiotherapy
- Treatment of more advanced bladder cancer
- Recurrence, follow-up and living after treatment
The purpose of this book is not to replace advice from your medical team, but to help you understand what is happening, why particular treatments may be recommended, and what questions you may wish to ask.
Whether you have recently been diagnosed, are already receiving treatment, or are supporting someone with bladder cancer, this book is designed to make a complicated subject easier to understand.
Clear explanations. Practical information. Less medical jargon.
I think this shorter version is better for the Amazon listing than the first one: it gets to the reader's concerns immediately and makes the contents very easy to scan.
