“However, issues related to cancer treatments, such as momentary or permanent incapacities, remain, with patients feeling the need to seek solutions to increase their quality of life.

Fourteen speakers have been confirmed at the event, from oncologists to radiologists, physiotherapists and nurses specialising in oncology.
