Advanced Course on the Multidisciplinary Team Management of Cervical Cancer

Overview

» From guidelines to daily practice

» Multidisciplinary management of locally advanced cervical cancer

» Stimulating interactive lectures to broaden your perspective

 

The exclusive ESGO course aims to enable practical implementation of advanced concepts and techniques in daily practice focussing on the multidisciplinary management of locally advanced cervical cancer.

The 2-day course offers experienced multidisciplinary teams of gynaecological oncologists and radiation oncologists an overview of the evidence-based theory combined with demonstration of brachytherapy skills.

The lectures will be followed by discussions based on case presentations to increase participant interaction and application of knowledge, including topics as alternative treatment modalities and multidisciplinary decision-making, as well as criteria for choosing the optimal treatment when certain modalities are not available.

Therefore, we would like to point out this special opportunity for you to submit your abstract. Abstract may be submitted in pair (by gynaecological oncologist or radiation oncologist from the same institution) or by single attendee. Deadline for abstract submission is January 10th, 2023. You will receive the abstract form submission upon your registration.

 

Target audience

We highly encourage multidisciplinary teams of gynaecological oncologists and radiation oncologists to participate. This course is aimed at experienced gynaecological oncologists and radiation oncologists wishing to introduce high-level treatment of complex locally advanced cervical cancer, including both the primary tumour and recurrence.
