Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The purpose of this study is to determine which Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) tools patients with medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) find most helpful. The study will compare a generic cancer QoL tool with those developed for thyroid cancer patients and neuroendocrine tumour (NET) patients. The study will also evaluate clinicians' opinions on the clinical usefulness of the QoL tools.
