Definition
- Oncology was one of the first disease areas where trade-offs between quality of life and quantity of life were recognized. Over time, a variety of health-related quality of life (HRQOL) measures have been used to quantify the impacts of cancer and its treatments on the quality of life, and several measures have been developed to assess HRQOL in cancer specifically.
