Abstract
This paper reviews various parameters that are used to assess the nutritional and functional status of cancer patients. Available information shows that the nutritional status of cancer patients is correlated with their overall prognosis and outcome. However, little information exists concerning the use of nutritional indexes to evaluate the effectiveness of nutritional rehabilitation of cancer patients. It is emphasized that we should concentrate on developing nutritional parameters to assess the functional improvement of patients rather than their body structure and composition.
