The ESTRO teaching course “Multidisciplinary Management of Breast Cancer” aims at promoting an integrated approach to the management of breast cancer.
The multidisciplinarity is ensured by a staff of experts coming from the different disciplines interacting in the management of breast cancer: epidemiology, pathology, radiology, gynaecology, surgery, medical oncology and radiation oncology.
The course is especially interactive thanks to the contouring workshops: during these hands on sessions the students will be able to put into practice the delineation guidelines discussed with the teachers and to share with the faculty and the fellow students the different approaches.
