University of Florida Radiation Oncology Seminar Objectives for 2012 Meeting
This conference provides invaluable information to faculty and residents from several educational institutions as well as professionals in private practice.
Presenters will typically present the results of IRB-approved studies conducted throughout the year that focus on monitoring and analyzing the outcomes of patients who have received radiotherapy at UF. There are also presentations by faculty that are broad overviews of certain disease systems, and what role radiotherapy can and should play in treatment of the condition.
