Abstract |
Medical thesis covering early detection methods for bladder tumours due to exposure to aromatic amines in industry. Epidemiology, aetiopathology, histology and evolution of bladder cancer. Clinical investigation techniques in occupational medicine. Strategies for medical surveillance during pre-employment examinations and for exposed workers. Legislative aspects, particularly in Italy. The need for new regulations (clinical and complementary examinations, medical files, periodic examinations, follow-up after the cessation of exposure) and for the standardisation of surveillance criteria are emphasised. |
