Chemotherapy PORT
Whenever there is discussion about PORT during cancer treatment planning , it’s often difficult for patients and care givers to visualise what PORT is or is it useful.
This Reel ( video ) can help us understand what is PORT, where is it placed and how is it used. #Chemotherapy #CancerTreatment

Tumour Mutation Burden ( TMB ) - interpretation beyond just a number
How TMB is measured matters.
tTMB ≠ bTMB. Assay, genomic coverage and cut-offs matter.
