Lymphomas - Refresher 2022
This course helps inform viewers 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, participants 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.
This activity is available from May 30, 2022, through 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on May 29, 2025.
This activity was originally recorded at ASTRO’s virtual 2022 ASTRO Annual Refresher Course, March 27-27, 2022.
