Multidisciplinary Thoracic Tumors Board Survey in Spain

Increasing complexity in diagnosis and management of lung cancer requires collaboration of multiple specialists. In Spain there are few Cancer Centers. Medical Oncology is in the center of cancer care covering academic and community hospitals but other resources like Thoracic Surgery, Nuclear Medicine and Radiotherapy are limited to larger centers. Spanish Lung Cancer Group/Grupo Español Cáncer Pulmón performed a survey to describe current structure, network and standard operational procedures (SOPs) of Thoracic Tumor Boards (TTB) in the country.
