2022 Refresher - Lymphomas

This presentation will help inform listeners about the multidisciplinary care of patients with lymphoma, the use of contemporary treatment fields (e.g. INRT, ISRT), appropriate use of technology (i.e. IMRT, VMAT, deep inspiration breath hold, proton beam therapy), new targeted therapies, immunotherapy, and treatment guidelines. The goal is to provide participants with updates on current clinical and translational initiatives in hematologic malignancies that are relevant to daily clinical practice. Additionally, attendees will be updated on the appropriate integration of these advancements in their daily practice, including indication, patient selection, and combinations of different therapeutic modalities, and management of common toxicities.

 

Target Audience

The activity is designed to meet the interests of radiation oncologists and radiation oncology residents.

 

Learning Objectives

    • Discuss the current guideline-based clinical practice in hematologic malignancies.
    • Discuss PET/CT response adaptive radiotherapy protocols for Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
    • Explain the application of involved-site radiotherapy (ISRT) for all disease sites – including Hodgkin lymphoma, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
    • Discuss the importance of multidisciplinary care in hematologic malignancies and how to best apply it for optimal outcomes.
    • Describe key advances in immunotherapy and targeted therapy in hematologic malignancies.
    • Discuss recent advances in new technology integration (i.e. IMRT, VMAT, deep inspiration breath hold, proton therapy) and how and when to integrate them.
    • Discuss late effect of radiotherapy and how to best utilize current knowledge for decision-making.
