provide an intensive hands on 3-day course, designed to review the current
concepts and recent advances in interventional pulmonology as it pertains to
the cancer patient and to introduce new technologic advances that are poised
to revolutionize the diagnosis, staging and management of lung cancer.
Malignancies involving the lungs continue to provide a significant challenge to
minimally-invasive diagnostic and therapeutic strategies are becoming feasible.
As the largest cancer center in the world, M.D. Anderson is able to offer a depth
and breadth of clinical experience and training a few can match. With
distinguished faculty made up of world's top experts, this course is designed to
provide the participant with a state-of-the-art review of the principles and
practice of Interventional Pulmonology in patients with thoracic malignancies. In
addition to interactive didactic sessions, participants will also undergo extensive
practical instruction in selected techniques utilizing in vivo animal models.
Instruction group size is limited to 4 participants per station in order to maximize
interaction and individual "hot zone" time. Additional instruction will be
individualized for those wishing to emphasize particular techniques.
Endobronchial ultrasound techniques will be particularly stressed and
participants should be able to acquire the cognitive and technical skills to safely
perform endobronchial untrasound-guided needle biopsies upon course
completion.
