Tumor Boards/ Tumor Conferences
Our 26 tumor boards (tumor conferences) are held on a weekly basis. They pool the expertise of all disciplines involved in the diagnosis and therapy of oncological diseases, including oncologists, surgeons, radiologists, pathologists, and radiotherapists, as well as other specialists, depending on the specific disease. This ensures that our patients receive the best possible care.
A patient’s case is presented to the tumor board after the initial diagnosis, before and after surgery, in the course of disease progression, and in the event of a recurrence. In 2022, more than 15,000 patients presented to tumor boards.
In each case, the specialists make a decision as to the best therapy in accordance with the applicable guidelines and the latest scientific standards. This and the transparency of decision-making processes are important quality criteria at the Comprehensive Cancer Center Freiburg – CCCF. Registration for the tumor boards is generally performed via the tumor board registration center.

The Tumor Board Online System (TOS) is developed and maintained by computer scientists of the Tumor Center. TOS provides the technical basis for the organization and implementation of the interdisciplinary tumor boards of the CCCF. In TOS, the tumor patients to be discussed are registered for the tumor conference, the participants of the tumor conference are documented and the decisions on the therapy procedure are recorded. The overall management of the tumor boards is coordinated by the team of the tumor board center and monitored within the framework of the requirements of quality management The data are transferred as protocol documents to the electronic file of the hospital information system after the conclusion of the conference.
Features:
- universally available modern web application
- decentralized registration of patients from all participating hospitals
- transfer of patient data from the hospital information system
- Formulation of the question/proposed resolution for the conference
- Context-sensitive display of previous conference resolutions
