The Who, What and How of Sarcoma (PRO 02)
This activity is comprised of a panel of four academic radiation oncologists from geographically different institutions. The activity is divided into an overview of sarcoma, treatment management recommendations, and finally specific techniques based on a variety of clinical scenarios. Discussion includes updates in classification and the clinical implications for different subtypes. The activity reviews the integration of radiation both with surgery and systemic therapy in pre-op and post-op localized disease as well as in unresectable and metastatic setting. Technical pearls are offered that can be utilized in the clinic based on anatomic location. The activity concludes with a series of real-world cases where audience members are polled followed by a panel discussion.
