Oncology. #Patient Doctor Team (I)
This year, two of the most important world conferences about Oncology, the 53rd American Society for Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Conference and the European Society for Clinical Oncology (ESMO) Conference 2017, focused their talks on the importance of the emotional well-being of cancer patients and influence on the ability to fight the disease. The scientific studies presented in these forums argue that psychological treatments raise the quality of life of the patient during and after such treatments. With this type of intervention should involve three people the oncologist, the psychologist, or the psycho-oncologist and the patient.
