editorial: Cancer: one Disease, many unmet Needs

Cancer involves both the person living with and those who are somehow engaged in it from different aspects. In other words, not only the patient (at pre-treatment, during and post-treatment periods) endures many sufferings, but also his/ her family members, non-professional caregivers (NCGs), and health care team members (including surgeons, oncologists, radiotherapists, palliative care specialists, psychiatrists, clinical psychologists, social workers, and so on) are influenced by cancer.
