eContouring for Primary Hepatobiliary Tumors

This eContouring activity reviews best practices for primary hepatobiliary contouring, including the integration of 4DCT imaging and MRI fusion. This activity is presented by an expert radiation oncologist, gaining hands-on experience in utilizing CT/MR imaging to delineate target volumes and critical structures. Through case-based discussions and practical exercises, participants can enhance their skills in treatment planning, ultimately improving the quality of radiation therapy delivery for patients with primary hepatobiliary cancers. The activity includes two cases, including a primary locally advanced hepatocellular tumor with macrovascular invasion and an unresectable cholangiocarcinoma.

This activity includes a recorded didactic background lecture and case/contour review. Participants also have access to the online contouring platform to contour the practice cases prepared by the faculty and receive a metric score based on the accuracy of their contour(s) compared to the faculty.

Cases Covered:

Case 1: Localized, Unresectable Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma (IHC)
Case 2: HCC with Macrovascular Invasion

This activity is available from April 28, 2025, through 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on April 27, 2027.

The content was originally recorded as a live webinar on March 28, 2025.

Target Audience

This course is designed to meet the interest of radiation oncologists and radiation oncology residents.
