A pilot study of regional participation in a videoconferenced multidisciplinary genitourinary tumor board.

A successful pilot study of a videoconferenced multidisciplinary genitourinary tumor board involving 21 physicians over six geographic sites for a 6-month period is reported. The majority of cases presented at the tumor board were of prostate or bladder origin. Specific recommendations around management, patient referral or clinical trial eligibility were made in the majority of cases presented. Physician satisfaction with the rounds was high and participation beyond the pilot has continued. Scheduling in order to provide maximum access/participation has been the main logistical challenge with the rounds.
