Cancer Conferences

A vital part of the cancer program at Deaconess Hospital is our weekly Cancer Conference. It is comprised of physicians from various fields such as medical oncology, radiation oncology, surgery, pathology, and diagnostic radiology.

Conferences are clinically oriented and physicians are encouraged to attend to learn more about current cancer cases and to share their knowledge of up-to-date literature on the disease as well as ongoing clinical trials that might be available to Deaconess patients.

The conferences serve as educational opportunities for physicians as well as a multidisciplinary team approach for review of certain cancer cases.

Deaconess Hospital is accredited by the Oklahoma State Medical Association to sponsor Continuing Medical Education for physicians. Deaconess Hospital designates these Continuing Medical Education activities for one credit hour in Category I of the Physician’s Recognition Award of the American Medical Association.
