Article Abstract
The National Cancer Institute designated models of comprehensive cancer care centres endeavour to enable the delivery of high-quality, holistic cancer care, informed by research evidence across the cancer care trajectory. These comprehensive cancer centers have typically been adult-oncology-focused, leaving an important gap and opportunity to consider what a model of comprehensive cancer care might look like for children and young people. With the advent of the opening of the first comprehensive children's cancer center in Australia and the southern hemisphere, this commentary considers the important role that psychosocial oncology needs to play in driving high-quality, person-centered comprehensive cancer care for all.

Purpose Of Review: Diagnostic stewardship (DS) aims to optimise the use of laboratory testing to improve patient care while reducing unnecessary tests. This review examines recent evidence on DS interventions to optimise the use of resources, focusing on three key areas: reducing unnecessary testing, maximising the impact of existing tests, and avoiding the overdiagnosis of hospital-acquired infections.
Recent Findings: Multiple interventions have demonstrated effectiveness in reducing unnecessary blood and urine culture testing, including clinical decision support tools, education programs, and multidisciplinary approaches.

Some patients struggle to learn about their therapeutic options and to understand and articulate their preferences. Mobile health (mHealth) apps can enhance patient-provider communication, playing a crucial role in the diagnosis, treatment, quality of life, and outcomes for patients living with MBC.
