Improving Outcomes in Urological Cancer (Sept 2002)
NICE has issued guidance on the organisation of healthcare for people with a urological cancer. The
guidance recommends which healthcare professionals should be involved in treatment and
care, and the types of hospital or cancer centre that are best suited to provide that healthcare.
Although the guidance does sometimes refer to appropriate forms of investigation and treatment, it doesn’t provide detailed information on these areas.
The key recommendations are:
People should be treated by a multidisciplinary team
Team members should have appropriate clinical skills
Radical surgery for prostate and bladder cancer should be carried out by specialist teams
Information and support should be improved
More research is needed on treatment
