This collaborative approach assures diagnostic efficiency and provides a comprehensive, individualized treatment plan for every patient seen in our clinic.
Treatment Planning
Your Methodist Lung/Thoracic Oncology team will meet to discuss the results of your tests and/or procedures. Working together, your team will develop a treatment plan specifically for you and your situation.
Your treatment plan may involve participation in a clinical trial or protocol. Clinical trials are very carefully planned, organized and monitored treatments. As a result, they generally provide the most effective treatment as well as valuable information that improve lung cancer care as a whole. Most advances in lung cancer treatment are due to the results of clinical trials.
