Features: Malignant tumors are a serious threat to human health. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), there are currently 22 million cancer patients worldwide, with 10 million new cases annually. It is estimated that by 2020, the incidence of cancer will increase by 50% compared to now, with 15 million new cases each year. This book aims to compile and summarize effective traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatments for cancer, providing a convenient and quick platform for doctors, patients, and their families to access up-to-date information on herbal prescriptions. The book contains over 1,500 formulas organized by system, with diseases as the main categories and formulas as the subcategories. For each disease, it summarizes three aspects: "General Effective Formulas" for specific conditions, "Dialectical Effective Formulas" reflecting TCM characteristics, and "Symptomatic Effective Formulas" for accompanying symptoms. Each formula is detailed with its composition, usage, therapeutic functions, modifications, and clinical efficacy, aiming to help readers identify formulas, apply them dialectically, and select them for specific symptoms.
