Nearly 100 percent of all breast cancer cases are reviewed at our pre-treatment conference, where a team of physicians and other healthcare providers reviews your imaging and lab results, evaluates your eligibility for current research trials and, together, designs the most appropriate treatment plan for you and your type of cancer. Unique cases may also be presented to the MD Anderson Multidisciplinary Planning Conference for review and input.
