Type: article

Abstract: diagnosis.In fact, consistent with other studies of survivors from treatment for primary gastrointestinal tract tumors, 2,3 prognosis improves over time.There are some open-source data sets of cancer survival prediction calculators that have been developed to facilitate pragmatic discussions between patients and clinicians pertaining to conditional survival for select solid tumors.4 As these outcome tools are refined to include individualized patient-level "-omic" information, nextgeneration outcome prediction tools have the potential to be more accurate in estimating outcome for cancer survivors.
