Prediction and Prevention of Cancer-Associated Thromboembolism (CAT)

Thromboembolism are highly prevalent and burdensome in patients with cancer. Risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE) varies widely across specific cancer patients.

This means targeting high-risk patients with cancer and avoiding prophylaxis in cancer patients at low risk for VTE.
