eContouring for Liver Cancer

The goal of this session is to teach attendees the practical aspects of liver contouring. Attendees will be able to practice contouring liver tumors and relevant organs at risk (OAR) both prior to the session and after to evaluate self-improvement. We will review the challenges in identifying the gross target volumes and OARs, as well as common pitfalls.

Target Audience

This program is designed to meet the interest of radiation oncologists, radiation oncology residents and radiation therapists.
