Tumor Board Conferences for Multidisciplinary Skin Cancer Management: A Survey of US Cancer Centers.

Conclusions: Results showed overall consistency in meeting structure but variability in function, which may be a reflection of institutional resources and investment in the conference. Future directions include defining metrics to evaluate changes in diagnosis or management plan after tumor board discussion, attendance, clinical trial enrollment, and cost analysis. Results of this survey may aid other institutions striving to develop and refine skin cancer TBCs. PMID: 30323091 [PubMed - in process]
