Cancer Conference (aka Tumor Board)
A Cancer Conference provides the opportunity to have a multidisciplinary discussion focused on current diagnoses and treatment standards, with patients’ well-being and care as the primary focus. During Cancer Conference meetings, oncologists, pathologists, radiologists, physicians, and other health care staff discuss actual patient cases—with the goal of determining the best treatment plan for the patient. Discussions cover each patient’s history of illness and their radiologic studies and pathology slides, cancer stage, prognostic factors, possible treatments, and clinical trial options.
