2019 Multidisciplinary Thoracic Cancers Symposium

This symposium convenes radiation and medical oncologists, thoracic surgeons and all members of the treatment team for a practical and comprehensive examination of current thoracic cancer care

Target Audience

This meeting is designed to meet the interests of medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, surgeons, physicists, nurses, diagnostic radiologists, pathologists, thoracic radiologists and pulmonary medicine physicians.

Learning Objectives

  • Discuss the relevance of the precision medicine initiative for clinical practice in thoracic malignancies.
  • Identify and overcome barriers to applying precision medicine recommendations into practice.
