Despite rapid advances in medical and information technology, knowledge of what is effective in clinical practice is often slow to spread and be implemented as standard procedure. To help address this, a National Cancer Policy Forum was held in October 2009 with the goal of creating a rapid learning healthcare system (RLHS) specifically for cancer treatment. This volume is an integrated report summarizing the discussions. Before publication a draft of this report was independently reviewed by four medical professionals. The volume contains a list of acronyms, the complete workshop agenda, and speaker biographies. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
