How is the ATOMIC Mobile App treatment different from other treatments for pediatric cancer survivors?
The ATOMIC Mobile App is unique because it focuses on providing support and resources through a digital platform specifically designed for pediatric cancer survivors, which is different from traditional treatments like radiotherapy or chemotherapy that directly target cancer cells. This app may offer tools for managing long-term health and quality of life, which are not typically addressed by standard cancer treatments.678910
