Numerous advances in diagnosis, staging, and treatment have evolved over the past several years for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Because of the new developments, input from a team of specialists is required to treat each patient. Many hospitals have implemented a multidisciplinary team approach to treat these complex cases.

In this ReCAP, Dr Nicole Tanner, a pulmonary critical care specialist from the Medical University of South Carolina, hosts thoracic oncologist Dr Carrie Lee and thoracic surgeon Dr Jason Long, colleagues from the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center, in a discussion of the advantages of multidisciplinary teams in the treatment of NSCLC patients.

Their discussion ranges from identifying key multidisciplinary team members, individual practitioner responsibilities, benefits of multidisciplinary teams to patients and clinicians alike, and the advantages of incorporating telehealth visits into standard practice after the pandemic.
