Would you expect a client to come in and say?
'I have a tumour, please treat my pain!'
Unlikely. No, they are more likely so to say,

This 40-minute audiobook or video options covers;
- Background information on the 10 most commonly diagnosed cancers and the 10 most fatal cancers. Given some assumptions, I will show you how to calculate on average, how many tumours will be coming through your clinic's doors every year presenting primarily as musculoskeletal complaints.
- A case study is then presented detailing the difficulties of determining the presence of an underlying tumour, especially when there has been a history of direct trauma.
- The third section of the video focuses on younger clients and tumours. Difficult to pick tumours in adults, and children can be that much more clinically challenging. This section looks specifically at 2 types of benign and 2 types of malignant tumours.
- The final section synthesises all the information, into a process of developing a healthy index of suspicion, guided by signs and symptoms. This section also details a clinical cluster of 4 signs that is 100% sensitive to the presence of a tumour.
