Diagnostics, treatment and rehabilitation of breast cancer patients is one of the most important tasks of the Institute of Oncology Ljubljana, where we cover the care of at least 70% of patients with this disease in our country. At least 30 specialists in various fields dedicate majority of their working time to breast cancer. A multidisciplinary approach has been the standard way of working for many years, and multidisciplinary boards are pre-planned regular weekly meetings where we decide on the most appropriate type and sequence of treatment for each individual patient. The members of the multidisciplinary team are oncologic and plastic surgeons, medical oncologists, radiotherapists, geneticists, radiologists, nuclear medicine specialists, pathologists, cytologists, molecular oncologists, gynecologists, psychooncologists and others. We include our breast cancer patients in many international phase I to III clinical trials and also conduct our own preclinical and clinical trials. In the field of breast cancer, the Oncology Institute also runs several national and international projects.
