- ImmunizationsOn Jan 21, 2021, the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) released updated recommendations for the administration of the COVID -19 vaccine. Patients with cancer should be prioritized for vaccination (CDC group b/c). Patients who are still under active treatment with chemo or radiation, immunization is recommended; with the understanding that that there is limited safety and efficacy data available at this time. People with serious health conditions such as cancer and with weakened immune systems were not included in many of the COVID-19 vaccine clinical trials. Patients no longer receiving active treatment and with no signs of active cancer, should have a good response to the vaccine and will be safe to receive. Information about the vaccine is continually evolving. The NCCN recommends waiting three months after completion of treatment for those who have received a stem cell transplant or CAR-T cell therapy; please discuss this with your administering provider for full recommendations. We encourage you to visit our site in the future for updated information.

- UltrasoundTests or procedures used to diagnose hepatobiliary and pancreatic cancers vary from case to case. Blood tests and liver function tests may be conducted in order to determine how well the liver, pancreas, and bile ducts are functioning. Imaging studies, including an abdominal ultrasound, MRI, or CT scan, are used to determine the size and extent of the cancer and to determine if it has spread to other areas or parts of the body. A biopsy is typically performed in order to obtain a diagnosis and to determine the appropriate course of therapy which may include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or a combination of treatment modalities.

- RadiologyAtlanta Cancer Care offers the latest treatments, technologies, and clinical trials to offer more patients with hepatobiliary and pancreatic cancers a better hope for a cure.

Each patient is unique, and Atlanta Cancer Care’s team treats each patient individually based on their specific circumstances.

More than 2,000 Georgians are expected to be diagnosed with the disease this year, according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI). Despite advances in cancer treatments over the last decade and the increased awareness of skin cancer, the survival rate for melanoma has not improved. However, when caught early melanoma is almost always curable.
