Rb-NET MDT
Welcome to the Retinoblastoma Network (Rb-NET) Multidisciplinary Team (MDT) project!
The International Centre for Eye Health at The London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine hosts virtual, periodic national retinoblastoma MDT meetings (tumour boards), in which the evaluation and management of children diagnosed with retinoblastoma are discussed.
Ugandan national retinoblastoma MDT meeting, July 2020.
Our Mission
The mission of the Rb-NET MDT project is to connect specialists from across the world with health care providers from within a country in order to enhance the quality of care of patients diagnosed with retinoblastoma in treatment centres from that specific country. This platform was created in order to enable a joint discussion between ophthalmologists, paediatric oncologists, radiologists, pathologists, geneticists and other medical experts that are clinically engaged in retinoblastoma management.
