Understanding CUP

The articles below by the Director of Jo's friends give an explanation of CUP with an emphasis on the patient perspective. The Nursing Times article is a short and simple overview whilst the British Journal of Nursing (BJN) article goes into more scientific detail:

Most of our information is web-based although we have a brochure for general information and fundraising purposes. Occasionally we are asked for hard copy information about CUP. Detailed information sheets are available from CancerBackup for patients in cancer centres or on request. The one page Q&A sheet below is easy to print-off and can also help with understanding CUP. Patient's Questions are posed by Jo's friends Director and Answers are given by oncologist Dr Harpreet Wasan.
