  • Description:
    Important psychological issues are involved in various cancer therapies. The patient has the ability to impact her own therapy by choosing a physician through personal interview and thus considering the physical and psychological support offered. Individuals who have cancer may have further impact by agreeing to participate in controlled clinical trials to help protect future generations, although patients are often deterred by conjecture that the best care will not be available under trial conditions.
