This session will review diagnosis, staging, and treatment of uterine and cervical cancers, including surgery, systemic therapy, and radiation therapy. Focusing on radiation therapy, we will go through specific indications for radiation therapy.
Cervical cancer continues to be a common cancer globally, especially in less developed regions and some underserved areas in the US where advanced stage presentations are common. Recently published clinical trials looked at addition of novel agents to standard chemoradiation.
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 multidiscipl
The ultimate goal of radiation oncology research is to improve clinical care. As a specialty, we tackle diverse research questions, addressing every type of cancer and encompassing cancer biology and radiation physics. But despite our best efforts, evidence-based medicine cannot provide 1 clear
The field of cancer is a rapidly evolving field with new treatment approaches moving to clinic on a daily basis. Radiation Oncology is no different. It is extremely difficult for a practicing clinician to stay abreast of new developments in cancer care.

Recurrent and inoperable endometrial cancer can be challenging to manage, both from a decision-making standpoint (palliative versus curative intent) and technically.
Brachytherapy is a critical component to the optimal management of locally advanced cervical cancer. However, due to many factors, its use was declining in the 2010s and when brachytherapy is omitted, patient outcomes are worse.
