title: [Psychooncology in the acute treatment setting].
abstract: Psychooncology is an interdisciplinary field that focuses on the various somatic, social and psychological factors influencing the well-being of oncological patients. Although the importance of psychooncological support of cancer patients is well accepted, universal standards for psychooncological care have not been established yet. Clinical guidelines for specific settings and / or specific indications still need to be developed. Oncological medicine is in dire need of concepts for integrated psychooncological care across the settings of acute care, rehabilitation and aftercare.
