When it comes to cancer, not all doctors and hospital are the same. Dr. J. Leonard Lichtenfeld, deputy chief medical officer of the American Cancer Society stated that at least one hospital should be found, which is part of a hospital approved by the Cancer Council. "These projects have interdisciplinary teams, information on receiving clinical trials, and comprehensive and sophisticated care," Lichtenfeld said. If you have a comprehensive cancer center designated by the National Cancer Institute near you it is a good idea to take care or at least get advice from one of these top centers. "This is a myth, you can not make a reservation by calling a top gun center like Sloan - Kettering, MD Anderson, Dana - Farber," said Memorial Sloan 's Digestive Cancer Specialist, Leonardo Salz It was. Citrine New York City Cancer Center. "All of these cancer centers offer dedicated patient access."

IBM's supercomputer Watson works with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and MD Anderson Cancer Center to help identify individual care alternatives for cancer treatment. Over the years, robots have helped physicians perform surgery. For example, in Guy and St. Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, the robot supports the execution of keyhole kidney surgery. Speed ​​is an important factor in the success of this procedure and the robot can suture vessels tying the donor kidney faster than humans. But this does not mean that the robot will replace the doctor, it just means that the robot just works better just for some tasks!
