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.

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.

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.

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

This program is designed to address the needs of a community practice physician and includes disease site reviews, interactive case-based discussions, a coding update and a scientific overview.

We will review indications for RT for STS in adults. We will review dosing and contouring rationale for STS in adults. We will review toxicity management and expectations for radiotherapeutic management for STS in adults.

This session will review the basic concepts of staging, overall treatment paradigm, radiation specific recommendations, radiation simulation, planning and treatment aspects, and literature regarding extremity and retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcomas.
