The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine define the diagnostic process as "a complex, patient-centered, collaborative activity that involves information gathering and clinical reasoning with the goal of determining a patient's health problem. This process occurs over time, within the context of a larger health care work system" (NASEM, 1 The planning committee's role was limited to planning the workshop, and the Proceed ings of a Workshop was prepared by the workshop rapporteurs as a factual summary of what occurred at the workshop.

These thought leaders were asked to discuss current challenges to cancer diagnosis and to share their insights and perspectives -- based on their involvement in efforts to improve cancer diagnosis and care -- on opportunities to expand access to high-quality diagnostic expertise and technologies in cancer care. Presentations and panel discussions examined • Current diagnostic challenges and the risk for diagnostic errors; • The changing landscape of pathology and radiology in cancer care; • Ways to improve cancer diagnosis through education, training, and quality improvement efforts; 3 The second workshop, The Clinical Application of Computational Methods in Preci sion Oncology, is planned for October 29–30, 2018.
