Support for Patients & Families

There is a great deal of information available on the Internet about cancer. Researching to learn more is an excellent idea, but requires a certain degree of skepticism to protect against false information that is often designed to promote a specific product that is not FDA approved for cancer treatment, and may even be dangerous to your health. Sutter's Health Information Library contains a wealth of reliable information and offers links to other trusted resources. The following Web sites also provide excellent information and links:

• National Cancer Institute www.cancer.gov


• Dictionary of Cancer Terms www.cancer.gov/dictionary/


• American Cancer Society www.cancer.org


• Emory University's CancerQuest www.cancerquest.org
