ESR/ESHI
SUPPORT PROGRAMME Learn about hybrid
imaging now and be at the forefront of medical imaging!
Register free of charge for the ESOR Course on Hybrid
Imaging in Oncology and get a free hotel room for two
nights plus free travel to Vienna!
The European
Society of Radiology (ESR) and the European School of
Radiology (ESOR), in cooperation with the European
Society for Hybrid Medical Imaging (ESHI), have decided
to extend the support to young radiologists, oncologists
and nuclear medicine physicians in their specialty
training as well as to recently board-certified
radiologists and nuclear medicine physicians by fully
subsidising this unique ESOR course and enabling
participants to learn more about hybrid medical imaging.
Applicants must be current ESR
members and members of the European Society for Hybrid
Medical Imaging (ESHI). To become an ESHI member now,
click here.
Please note places
are limited and will be allocated on a first-come,
first-served basis. Applications will be
accepted until June 19. You will receive further notice
about the success of your application in due
time. Hotel information will be forwarded
together with your confirmation.
COURSE INFORMATION This course is aimed at
final-year residents, general radiologists, nuclear
medicine physicians and oncologists who want to update
their knowledge of new applications and state-of-the-art
hybrid medical imaging of cancer. No previous practical
experience of the subject is required. The expert
faculty comprises nuclear medicine physicians and
radiologists who will provide a series of lectures
describing optimal imaging pathways for oncological
diagnosis, follow-up and response assessment. Lectures
will be followed by interactive workshops, presented
jointly by faculty specialists.
Hybrid imaging
provides more information than only structural or only
molecular/functional imaging in several cancers, which
facilitates better decisions in treatment and a more
accurate idea of prognosis. Combining nuclear medicine
and advanced imaging such as CT and MRI is becoming
increasingly crucial in the routine staging of oncologic
disease, treatment planning, and follow-up. It is
important to take advantage of both structural and
molecular information in each examination and, with
continuous education, most hybrid examinations should be
read by one specialist in the future. |
LEARNING
OBJECTIVES:
- to
learn the principles of hybrid medical imaging
- to
learn the key clinical questions at different
points in the patient’s journey
- to
understand the indications, limitations and
comparative merits of each part in hybrid
medical imaging in a wide range of oncologic
conditions and how it relates to other
modalities
- to
appreciate the complementary roles of
structural and functional/molecular imaging in
cancer management
- to
understand hybrid medical imaging pathways for
a range of different tumour types including
non-small cell lung cancer, lymphoma, head and
neck, prostate and gynaecological cancer
- to
understand how information derived from imaging
guides patient selection for treatment and
supports individualised treatment planning
