Programme

Overview: A panel discussion with five experts will explore the future of brachytherapy, based on survey results from participants of the GEC-ESTRO workshop. Panelists include experienced brachytherapists, representatives from ESTRO, young ESTRO members, and a patient advocate. They will discuss key findings from the survey, addressing challenges, innovations, and strategies for advancing brachytherapy. Topics include technological developments, education for future specialists, patient perspectives, and improving accessibility. This discussion aims to bridge clinical practice with emerging trends, fostering collaboration among professionals and patients. By integrating diverse viewpoints and data-driven insights, the panel seeks to define a sustainable and progressive path for brachytherapy.

Overview: Proffered Papers are presented in one of the sessions scheduled in the main session halls. Each author will present orally for 7 minutes, followed by 3 minutes for discussion. Sessions will be recorded and available on-demand.

Overview: In this symposium, the latest advancements in Interventional Radio-Immunotherapy will be discussed, emphasizing the synergy between radiotherapy and immunotherapy to improve cancer treatment outcomes, with a special focus on brachytherapy (Interventional radiotherapy). The lectures will cover radiobiological aspects, including the effects of different radiation types and dose rates, and address challenges in dose distribution. Additionally, the symposium will focus on specific tumors such as gynecological, head, neck, skin, and urological cancers. Ongoing clinical trials and future directions will be explored, with an emphasis on personalized approaches based on tumor immune profiling to optimize treatment efficacy.
