Abstract

In Asia, North America and Europe, lung cancer remains one of the top contributors to cancer-related death. Oncology training programs span 4-5 years and palliative care fellowship is around 2 years. However, the multi-disciplinary conference is increasingly viewed as preferable to assist with decision making in most modern centers. Palliative care for lung cancer likewise differs between regions.

Keywords: Pattern of care, palliative care, euthanasia, medically assistance in dying, lung cancer, treatment.
