Diagnosis and Therapies for Metastatic Cancer

A member of Cancer Support Basel recently attended a seminar at the Radio-Oncology Department of the University Hospital in Basel, one of a series of lectures on different aspects of cancer and its treatment. A number of diagnostic methods and treatments were discussed for metastases of liver, colon, lung and breast cancer, including MRI, PET/CT scans, surgery, radiotherapy, systemic therapy (monoclonal antibodies and chemotherapy). She’s kindly written a short report, which is printed below.
