Activity
The increasing activity in the medical oncology department during the past years, has allowed us to develop an integrative and personalized treatment to patients, focused in the different care perspectives that affect quantity and quality of life. Personalized care always guided by the different expert physicians of the multidisciplinary oncological team.
Outpatient activity has grown exponentially from 1993 to 2015, from 700 first visits to 1.700, and from 7.000 to 23.000 second visits. In our hospital day we administer 100-120 daily treatments, in 28 armchairs.
The clinical trials unit offers 1oo different trials by year for the different types of cancer, with a median of 300 patients included annually. Has 6 armchairs for the administration of the novel therapies.
Inpatient care unit has 30 beds, 6 dedicated to palliative care. Hospitalized patients are attended by 3 teams of specialized physicians in multimodality/integral attention.

Every year in our country more than 40,000 cases are diagnosed and the tendency is going up, in large part due to the influence of risk factors as the population […] La entrada An early diagnosis of colorectal cancer improves prognosis aparece primero en Blog sobre diagnóstico y tratamiento del CÁNCER.
Liquid biopsy, diagnosis of non-invasive cancer, personalised treatment and follow-up
Liquid biopsy or fluid biopsy is a new cancer diagnosis and follow-up test. It consists of a blood test that can either confirm or rule out the presence of tumour cells in the blood and, if present, analyse their DNA to personalise or adapt the treatment. NON-INVASIVE CANCER DIAGNOSIS Until recently, to diagnose cancer or to monitor its progression, it was necessary to […] La entrada Liquid biopsy, diagnosis of non-invasive cancer, personalised treatment and follow-up aparece primero en Blog sobre diagnóstico y tratamiento del CÁNCER.
New barnaclínic+ genetic test to detect risk of cancer, early diagnosis and prevention
For the past few days, barnaclínic+ has been offering the possibility of carrying out a genetic test to detect cancer risk. It is an early detection test for the risk of developing some types of cancer and, above all, what is known as hereditary cancer.
