A team of specialists will meet to discuss the best possible treatment for you. This is called a multidisciplinary team (MDT).

Your doctor or cancer specialist or nurse will explain the different treatments and their side effects. They will also talk to you about things to consider when making treatment decisions. You will need this information before you give your permission (consent) to have any treatment.

Treatment for lung cancer will depend on the type of lung cancer you have. You can read more in our information on:

You may have some treatments as part of a clinical trial.
