Patient referral
Patients with a neuroendocrine tumour, for whom a multidisciplinary team (MDT) has established that Lutate is a valid treatment option, should be referred to one of the NSW Lutate services listed.
The Canrefer website allows you to find cancer specialists who are MDT members, and has information about cancer services, optimal care pathways, and patient resources.
Smoking cessation support
Evidence suggests that tobacco cessation following cancer diagnosis improves survival. It also reduces treatment-related complications.[13–14] Health professionals should discuss tobacco use with all patients and provide appropriate cessation support.
