Webcast Recording: Cancer and Aging: Considerations when Working with Older Adult Cancer Patients

Recorded on Wednesday, 15 February 2023

Approximately 1 hour and 4 minutes

Age is no longer a determinant for treatment in the older cancer patient. The evaluation of frailty and the uncovering of geriatric syndromes are of paramount importance when working with this population. This webinar will focus on the evaluation of the older adult with cancer, how geriatric assessment results should be incorporated into treatment-related decisions and how frailty evaluation influences treatment outcomes.
