Cancer multidisciplinary team meetings – standards for clinical radiologists
Date: 2023
Modern medicine requires a multiprofessional team of doctors and allied staff to manage patients effectively in a range of medical conditions, particularly cancer. Imaging plays a key part of the decision-making with radiologists are considered ‘core’ members of multidisciplinary team meetings (MDTMs).
The standards in this document outline the requirements for clinical radiologists to maximise the benefit to patients. They provide recommendations for the resource requirements and attendance at MDTMs as well as audit and how they can feed into REALMs.
Although most of the guidance applies to cancer MDTMs, many of these recommendations will also be applicable to non-cancer MDTMs and other clinicoradiological meetings.
