problem at a variety of anatomic sites, at various stages of a
cancer patient's journey;
- Explain how technological
advances and understanding of tumor biology can help address
challenges in cancer diagnosis and therapy assessment;
- Compare and explain the
relative merits and limitations of imaging versus other methods
in addressing clinical needs; and
- Appreciate where further
scientific/technical developments are needed so as to advance
patient care at the point of delivery.
