Description

Background The breast multidisciplinary team (MDT) has evolved over the past decade. The breast MDT now has a central role in decision-making in the management of every patient with breast cancer in the UK, and the model has been widely adopted elsewhere. The original drivers to the MDT process were to improve upon individual and idiosyncratic variation in clinical decision-making by the primary clinician (often the surgeon), with an informed, systematic and effective input from medical and radiation oncologists and allied health professionals. The intentions of the MDT process were thus clear. They were to standardise and harmonise decision-making in cancer management around perceived best practice, and to introduce all components of decision-making in advance of critical interventions. The logic of multidisciplinary teamwork in cancer care is persuasive [1,2], although the evidence base for a treatment benefit is as yet weak [3]. However, the evolution of the MDT as a clinical management tool is incomplete.
