This session explores the role of low dose radiotherapy (LDRT) in treating osteoarthritis (OA), a prevalent and debilitating condition affecting millions worldwide. Despite its widespread use in Europe, LDRT remains underutilized in the United States.
Improvement in cancer therapies have increased the number of long-term survivors with brain and spine tumors. While radiation therapy remains one of the cornerstones of treatment modalities, it is associated with toxicities that can impact quality of life.
This activity reinforces the value of brachytherapy in the curative treatment of patients with advanced gynecologic cancers and details the challenges in operationalizing complex gynecologic brachytherapy within a busy external beam department.
This activity is a case-based discussion with a panel of experts in the field of GU malignancies discussing how to personalize treatment recommendations based on imaging (including MRI, Fluciclovine F18 and Ga68-PSMA scans), pathology and clinical findings for patients with oligometastatic diseas
This activity reviews the literature for key aspects of soft tissue sarcoma management in adults. The goal is to provide an evidence base to guide clinicians on practice for management of these rare tumors.
Radiotherapy or radiosurgery is the primary treatment for most patients with primary brain tumors and metastatic tumors of the brain and spine. With increasing overall survival for these patients, they are at an increasing risk of tumor recurrence within a previously irradiated field.
Patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD), especially those with pulmonary fibrosis, are at increased risk of developing lung cancer. Management of lung cancer in patients with ILD is particularly challenging.
Adaptive radiation therapy (RT) is an innovative treatment approach that is entering radiation oncology practice for the treatment of a variety of malignancies.
Palliative radiation therapy is underutilized across a variety of clinical settings, with reported disparities in palliative radiation therapy administration based on age, race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status and geography.
This activity is dedicated to unraveling the emerging field of focal therapies in oncology, with a specific focus on histotripsy, high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) and electroporation.
