 note = {BACKGROUND: To clarify how a multidisciplinary cancer board (CB) influences treatment decisions.
\nMETHODS: From March 2010 to June 2011, a total of 475 cases were discussed at our CB and the minutes of the board were reviewed for this study.
\nRESULTS: Of the 475 patients, minor changes in treatment methods were made in 42 patients (9 %) and major changes were made in 28 patients (6 %). Further diagnostic procedures, further publication surveys and reconfirmation of patient's wishes were recommended in 80 patients (17 %). In the 392 patients for whom treatment was recommended, the CB's recommendation was realized in 349 patients (89 %) and was not realized in 20 (5 %) patients.
\nCONCLUSIONS: It is obvious that a CB has a great influence on cancer treatment decisions, but the effectiveness of the CB in our hospital should be verified in the future by analyzing treatment outcomes.},
