An Individualised Approach to Cancer Treatment
Cancer treatment can involve more than one type of therapy.
Treatment selection depends on the cancer type, stage,
pathology, molecular or other relevant clinical findings,
previous treatment and the patient's overall health.
Dr. Vivek's medical oncology role is to assess these factors
and help determine which systemic treatment approaches may
be appropriate.
Understand the Cancer
Review the diagnosis, pathology, imaging and other
relevant clinical information before treatment decisions
are made.
Personalise the Treatment Plan
Consider the patient's cancer characteristics, previous
treatment, overall health and treatment goals when
evaluating systemic therapies.
Coordinate Cancer Care
Medical oncology may need to work alongside surgical
oncology, radiation oncology, pathology and other
specialists as part of multidisciplinary care.
