EQ: What is the best way a Pediatric Oncologist can increase the survival rate of a patient with a primary cancer?
Answer #2: A Pediatric Oncologist can increase the survival rate of a patient with a primary cancer by developing specialized treatments that are effective in killing cancerous cells.
3 details to support the answer (a detail is a fact and an example):
1. Screening reduces mortality in the U.S.
2. Develop a systematic plan for screening, surveillance, and prevention.
3. Another approach to delivering Conformal Radiatian therapy involves arc therapy with photons.
The research source (s) to support your details and answer:
1. Thomas, Frieden. "The Oncologist." A Public Health Approach to Winning the War Against Cancer. AlphaMed Press, 17 Dec. 2008. Web. 06 Feb. 2014.
2. Oeffinger, Kevin. "The Annals of Family Medicine." Health Care of Young Adult Survivors of Childhood Cancer: A Report from the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study. Annals of Family Medicine, 1 Jan. 2014. Web. 15 Oct. 2013.
3. Tarbell, Nancy J. "The Oncologist." Conformal Radiation Therapy for Childhood CNS Tumors. AlphaMed Press, n.d. Web. 20 Feb. 2014.
Concluding Sentence: Treatments are meant to fight cancer in certain ways, but narrowing them down further can increase the chances of a patient's survival rate since a specialized treatment will focus on each individual specifically.
