| Description |
Approximately 10,000 children are diagnosed with cancer each year. Hematological cancers are the most common, followed by cancers of the nervous system and other solid tumors. Physical therapists provide assessment and interventions for children with such diagnoses in order to reach goals of restored mobility and continued development. Through a series of case presentations speakers from the Pediatric Oncology SIG will provide content on the examination, evaluation, and management of children with selected oncological disorders/treatments.
