COMBINED THERAPIES, COMBINED 

IMAGES, COMBINED VISION 

Radiation therapy is more often than not 

combined with other modalities when used 

with curative intent. In addition, emerging 

imaging modalities increasingly contribute to 

the sophisticated processes involved in the 

delivery of radiation therapy. Through a series of 

clinical (CNS, Gyn, H&N, GU, Breast) and 

technical presentations and panel discussion 

sessions, the objectives of the Friday-Sunday 

course are to provide an update on combined 

approaches to cancer management. We will 

discuss how to integrate new imaging modalities 

and reinforce synergies among the team 

members in radiation oncology. 

NEW THIS YEAR 

We will have a parallel session on Saturday 

afternoon on practical issues with new imaging 

technologies. The intent is to offer a one-day 

registration on Saturday only for dosimetrists and 

radiation therapy technologists. This one-day program 

will include the morning general session, the 

afternoon parallel session, and the annual Buschke 

Lecture. 

TARGET AUDIENCE 

The course is intended for a national audience 

of radiation oncologists and medical physicists 

actively involved in the clinical activities or the 

decision-making process of using radiation for 

cancer treatment. 

OBJECTIVES 

The purpose of this course is to increase competence 

and improve clinician practice in radiation oncology. 

Upon completion of this course participants should be 

able to improve expertise in the following areas: 

• CNS: Hybrid surgery 

• Prostate: Sentinel node scintigraphy and 

radiopharmaceuticals 

• Head and Neck: Advances in surgery and 

nanoparticles 

• GYN: Combined modalities 

• Breast: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy and new 

target definitions
