In the combating of malignant tumors, it is helpful when specialists can share, often prolonged treatment, with different modalities. In addition to the operative therapy, radiation, chemotherapy and/or a combination of radio chemotherapy is necessary. Teleoncology allows those involved to create a so-called Oncology "colloquium". Not only can appointments be coordinated, but so to any follow-up in order to provide information amongst all patients. Any necessary treatment interruptions deviating from the original plan can be transmitted quickly and easily. (Adapted from: http://vimed.de/de/telemedizin-glossar.php?lang=en) |
