Summary
"Interventional oncology has really evolved into an important component of modern cancer care and is often described now as the fourth pillar alongside medical, surgical, and radiation oncology. The specialty now encompasses a broad spectrum of image-guided procedures that support from cancer diagnosis, treatment, to effectively managing symptoms that are caused by the disease. In other words, what we're seeing is that across the continuum of care, IO is playing a vital role," ONS member Evelyn P. Wempe, DNP, MBA, APRN, ACNP-BC, AOCNP ® , CRN, NEA-BC, executive director for advanced practice providers for the oncology service line at the University of Miami Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center in Florida, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS ® , manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about interventional oncology.
