The Invisible Cancer - Bringing Visibility to Neuroendocrine Cancer
The Invisible Cancer Podcast raises awareness of neuroendocrine cancer, a cancer most people have never heard of, and this lack of awareness can affect diagnosis, treatment, and care. Through real-life stories, expert insights, and practical advice, we explore the challenges patients face, from initial diagnosis to management, including the impact on mental health and ongoing follow-up.
Hosted by Lisa Walker and produced by Neuroendocrine Cancer UK, this podcast shines a light on neuroendocrine and other often-overlooked cancers, offering information, support, and connection to anyone affected.

In this episode, we talk to Professor John Ramage about quality-of-life research. Prof Ramage is a consultant physician in gastroenterology and hepatology at the Hampshire Hospitals NHS Trust and Deputy Lead Clinician at King’s Health Partner's NET centre.
His research interests focus on the quality of life in neuroendocrine cancer as well as the risk factors and epidemiology of these tumours.
The discussion focuses on what quality-of-life research is and how central the patient is to deciding which parameters are included in any quality-of-life questionnaire. It also looks at some of the challenges of recording quality of life and what being involved is like for a patient. Current and future research projects are also discussed.
