Segment 2 - Team-Based Approach to Treatment

In this segment, panelists examine prostate cancer treatment as a model for team-based approach. Panelists agree that there is a need for a multidisciplinary approach to care. There are roles for pathologists, urologists, radiation oncologists, medical oncologists, etc. The collaboration is necessary to provide quality care to patients. “There is a growing expectation for cancer patients now that they’re going to be cared for by a team,” said Dr Shore.
