Assessing the mindset of cancer patients will help us better understand which patients are
having difficulty dealing with the diagnosis and treatment that may not otherwise be fully
appreciated by their physicians. By identifying such patients, we may then be able to design
and implement strategies that can help improve their coping skills both during the treatment
as well as after the completion of treatment. In addition to addressing physical concerns
and symptoms, this approach will help address the overall emotional impact of a cancer
diagnosis as more patients are living as cancer survivors.
Inclusion Criteria:
- Pathologically diagnosed carcinoma patients at Stanford cancer center who signed the
