Proceedings of the American Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology 39th Annual Meeting
PROGRAM
DESCRIPTIONS
& OBJECTIVES
The overall theme of the program is combined modality therapy. The educational elements are targeted at oncologists of all disciplines, as well as physicists, biologists, and technologists involved in radiation therapy. Following this activity, attendees will have acquired state-of-the-art practice information related to radiation, surgical, and medical oncology. Specific clinical areas being included are: lymphoma, breast cancer, urological cancer, pediatric cancer, cancers of the head and neck, lung, gynecological cancer, central nervous system tumors, sarcomas, and cutaneous tumors. Also included will be discussion of quality of life issues associated with cancer and cancer treatment, radiation applications for non-neoplastic diseases, and outcome studies. Special program elements in radiation biology and radiation physics will address clinical studies, experimental therapeutics, basic radiation, dosimetry, treatment planning, and basic radiation physics. These topics are addressed by a combination of refresher courses, panel discussions, proffered papers and posters. Refresher courses are reviews of a field. Panel discussions emphasize current controversies. Proffered papers and posters represent new research findings. Keynote speeches will address important issues in the field of oncology. This combination provides complementary coverage of a broad range of topics relevant to radiation oncology.
Who Should Attend? This program is designed to meet the interest and needs of all oncologists, with special emphasis on radiation oncology. It is also appropriate for radiation oncology residents, radiation biologists, radiation physicists, radiation therapists, radiation oncology nurses, radiation oncology administrators, and all other professionals involved in the field of radiation oncology.
