Training With Mobile Application in Breast Cancer

Mobile devices have an increasing role for the patient care and its use in the field of oncology creates promising opportunities for supportive cancer care and patient education. Mobile applications were established for the supportive cancer care but their area of use is limited. Although there are many field specific medical mobile applications, there are few training programs for the benefit of patients. However, these are innovative tools and provide accessibility, individual training and consultancy in order for the patients to be able to cope with side effects of the treatment; thus, improving their quality of life, symptom management and distress.
