Webinar | Brachyablation

October 24, 2024 | 11:00 AM ET

Building on the recent discussions at the 2024 World Congress of Brachytherapy, the American Brachytherapy Society has assembled a group of experts in the field of high dose rate ablative brachytherapy, or "brachyablation," to take a deep dive into this growing area of research and clinical innovation. International experts in radiation oncology and interventional radiology will discuss the use of brachyablation in the liver, lung, and other sites, and the unique considerations for medical physics and nursing in this application will be reviewed, with an emphasis on the role of collaborative multidisciplinary care.

Join us October 24th at 11:00 AM Eastern to learn about this exciting topic and how you and your program can get involved!
