Jessica Hui Cheah Lim, Cian Keenan, Gerard Flaherty
Abstract
Abstract Improvements in cancer treatment and increased cancer survivorship prompt a more holistic approach to the provision of pre-travel health advice to individuals with active or historical cancer. This perspective extends the discussion of travel health beyond immunosuppression and considers both the risks and benefits of international travel for cancer patients.
