Patient Focused Treatment of Gynecologic Cancers - 2021 Annual Meeting is organized by American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO).,,Course opens: 02/08/2022,Course expires: 02/13/2025,,Description :,This panel of speakers examines four different aspects of patient-oriented factors that will allow the practicing radiation oncologist to better recommend, direct, and evaluate the results of therapy for women with gynecologic cancers. The speakers examine the differences in access to care and the disparities that different populations face, the barriers that prevent access, and potential means to mitigate them. The panel describes the use of molecular and imaging factors that can determine the differential response to radiation therapy in women with cervical cancer, laying the ground for treatment intensification or deintensification for future clinical investigations. Then it reports on the use of intra-treatment imaging with MRI-Linacs to better customize and adapt to individual changes in anatomy. Finally, the speakers describe the use of patient-reported outcomes in clinical trials, and how they may differ from physician-reported ones.,,Learning Objectives :,Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to:,• Describe the current disparities experienced by different populations and the means by which we might mitigate them.,• Describe state-of-the-art imaging and molecular determinants of response in women with cervical cancer.,• Describe the use and potential benefits of online MRI evaluation of treatment response with MRI-Linacs in gynecologic cancers.,,Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
