Current Situation and Future Direction of Multidisciplinary Diagnosis and Treatment of Lung Cancer

Abstract

Although multidisciplinary team (MDT) diagnosis and treatment model can improve the quality of life and survival prognosis of the patients, why does it not reach the expected goal of the MDT diagnosis and treatment model? The main reason is that the diagnosis and treatment mode of MDT in lung cancer lags behind the progress of various treatment methods. By analyzing the latest research results of MDT diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer at home and abroad, combined with the experience of MDT diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer in the Lung Cancer Center of West China Hospital of Sichuan University, this article will discuss and summarize the progress and future direction of MDT in lung cancer from the following aspects: (1) The connotation and extension of MDT diagnosis and treatment mode of lung cancer need to be changed and adapted to new methods of diagnosis and treatment; (2) The clinical decision making in the diagnosis and treatment of MDT in lung cancer should be transformed from "multidisciplinary consultation (MDC)" to "MDT"; (3) The diagnosis and treatment process of MDT in lung cancer should shift from "fire brigade mode" to "firewall mode", and finally implement "individualized whole-process management mode"; (4) The path of MDT diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer should be changed from "temporary convening mode" to "single disease center system mode of lung cancer". .
