Figure 1 An example of the menu-driven clinical support tool user interface. (A) The provider navigates through sequential prompts to select the disease site, stage, and other relevant risk factors. (B) The support tool displays the recommended treatment strategy in an example patient with stage IIA breast cancer who underwent breast-conserving surgery with 1 positive sentinel lymph node without undergoing axillary dissection and had additional adverse factors.
