About the PATHFx project
PATHFx is a clinical decision support tool supported by an international collaboration designed to improve the lives of patients living with metastatic bone disease.
It is designed to reduce bias, and help base treatment decisions on objective, rather than purely subjective information.
Importantly, we believe the PATHFx should be available, worldwide and free of charge, to those who depend on it.
You may notice that we have accepted a limited amount of industry support designed to help surgeons provide the right implant(s) to the right patients at the right time. This kind of support will also help keep PATHFx.org available to all of our users, free of charge.
The International Bone Metastasis Registry that ensures PATHFx remains current, is funded by institutional and competitive grants. The science behind PATHFx will always be peer-reviewed, ensuring the methodology adheres to the highest possible statistical standards.
