The impact of a communal multidisciplinary tumour board on medical education
The tumour board/network improved the outcome of musculoskeletal tumours over the study period. The network improved the education of medical doctors and increased the capacity for training newer instructors in a resource-limited environment. Perhaps with appropriate social and corporate support, communal tumour boards like LAMON may translate into a good model for multidisciplinary care of diseases and capacity building in resource-limited settings.
