Brachytherapy: Everything, Everywhere, All at Once Series: CNS Brachytherapy and Intraoperative Radiation Therapy Techniques.
February 14, 2023 | 12:00 PM ET
Welcome to our series of sessions focusing on site-specific brachytherapy and intraoperative radiation therapy techniques and how to integrate them into your clinical practice, our next session will focus on applications in the brain. Led by Dr. Gabriella Wernicke, our group of neurosurgery and radiation oncology experts will review brachytherapy implant and intraoperative techniques for primary and metastatic CNS malignancies. The session will include an overview of various technical options, how to initiate and manage your program, and conclude with case discussions between the faculty.
