The 3rd Leuven Course on Head and Neck Cancer Imaging
January 8-10, 2009
Leuven, Belgium
Organisation: Prof. Dr. Robert Hermans
The aim of this course is to review the diagnostic value of imaging studies in head and neck malignancies, and to show the impact of such studies on patient management. Starting from normal radiological anatomy, the imaging characteristics of the different tumoral lesions occurring in this complex body region will be reviewed; the relative value of the different available imaging modalities will be explained. Particular attention will be paid to pertinent findings that potentially alter patient treatment. The role of radiology in patient surveillance after treatment for head and neck cancer will be reviewed. Apart from lectures, practical teaching will be done during workshops, where the participants will have the opportunity to test and expand their knowledge by reviewing clinical cases, with direct feedback from the teachers.
This course is sponsored by the International Cancer Imaging Society (ICIS). Members of ICIS are entitled to a reduced course fee.
The first RSSA/ICIS Cancer Imaging Course
6-8 February 2009: Spier Estate, Stellenbosch, Cape Town, South Africa
As a result of more than 2 years of careful review and planning by members of both societies, the 2009 Cancer Imaging Course has been established to meet the important challenges of advancing imaging in the multidisciplinary management of cancer. The course offers an extremely well balanced and full programme, presented by an international faculty of 13, consisting of 12 highly distinguished Fellows of the ICIS and a leading South African endoscopic skull base surgeon. They will address a wide variety of topics important to daily practice as well as the basics of cancer imaging.
