2025 ASTRO Annual Refresher Course Credit Evaluation

This course is designed to provide clinicians in practice and trainees with a comprehensive review and update of the clinical practice parameters across most major sub-disciplines of radiation oncology, including sarcomas, pediatrics and lymphomas, and the role of radiotherapy in the multidisciplinary management of cancer patients. The course will review key evidence that forms the basis for current clinical practice guidelines and trends in new approaches. In addition, the course will cover treatment of oligometastases and use of SBRT to improve outcomes for patients with metastatic disease. It will also provide hands-on experience in contouring for breast, lymphomas and upper GI malignancies. It will also inform on the use of protons and heavy ions in the clinic and the use of radiation in the treatment of benign disease.

 

Target Audience

The meeting is designed to meet the interests of practicing radiation oncologists, radiation oncology residents, medical and clinical physicists, radiation therapists, radiation dosimetrists, nurses and all other health professionals involved in the field of radiation oncology.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this live activity, participants should be able to:

  • Describe and implement the latest radiation therapy treatment recommendations for clinical scenarios commonly encountered in clinical practice.
  • Safely utilize the latest radiation technologies to improve patient care.
  • Describe the data and clinical use of protons and heavy ions in the management of patients.
  • Appropriately and safely incorporate the treatment of oligometastases into clinical practice.
  • Describe the management of benign diseases with radiation.
