  • Title: Anticancer centres in France.
    Author: Renwick S.
    Journal: Aust N Z J Surg; 1979 Jun; 49(3):374-7. PubMed ID: 289382.
    Abstract:
    The system of anticancer centres in France is described, with a more detailed description of the largest of these, the Institute Gustave Roussy at Villejuif. The anticancer centres between them see and treat 20% to 25% of the cancer patients in France, control over 4,000 inpatients beds, and see over 75,000 new outpatients annually. The centres are staffed by a full-time multidisciplinary team, divided into "communittees" which deal with each individual type of malignancy. The committees have full secretarial and research staffs and regularly evaluate their progress at symposia. They provide a standard of excellence for the oncological services in France.
