Educational Objectives:
Oncology has advanced tremendously in the last 20 years. Terms like personalized medicine, genomic medicine, targeted treatments are mentioned if not major aspect of almost every article or publication about cancer. There is significant mystery about oncology, treatments and principles. Yet basic underlying principles remain minimally changed. This course will review those core principles. Dr. Bhanderi will also review current knowledge and thought processes about Oncology (rationale for systemic treatment, principles and mechanisms of antineoplastics,), diagnostic techniques.
“I plan to review recent cancer epidemiology and trends, second most common group of diseases causing loss of life. I will then focus on six most common cancers (lung, breast, colon, prostate, hematologic malignancies, pancreatic) with case vignettes where needed. We will also review toxicities of treatment, oncologic emergencies, transitions of care from acute treatment to chronic long-term follow-up of survivors. Lastly I will review set of available resources for future reference.”
