What is the Breast Unit?

I am very proud to present this new NHS interdisciplinary operative unit for the treatment of neoplastic breast disorders.
The aim is to provide a high quality treatment, in line with the European guidelines (EUSOMA), in order to optimize time and resources. The studies published in 2012 showed that this type of organizational model is able to increase the survival rate of cancer patients and to guarantee a higher quality service delivery and visibility.
The professionals involved are able to optimize and standardize the treatment, matching the surgical operation and radiotherapy to the individual problems of each patient, following the cancer patient closely throughout all her treatment.

The efficiency of the BREAST UNIT is assessed by means of the scientific research coming from the most recent studies and experiences in international literature.
