Decision Making for Diagnosis and Management: A Consensus Comes to Life

Research output: Contribution to journalReview articlepeer-review

Abstract

The diagnosis and treatment of head and neck cancer is extremely complex. As a result, multiple medical providers are involved in a patient's care, and the multidisciplinary tumor boards provide a forum whereby they can share and discuss the intricacies of each individual patient's case. When recommendations are presented to the patient and decisions are to be finalized, the patient should benefit from the collective wisdom of a team of providers to achieve and implement a patient-centric and clinically sound consensus.
