Falcon 2024 Online Course - Head and Neck Cancer

The delimitation of volumes in patients with head and neck tumors is an important task that has undergone notable modifications over the past few years. It is essential to be rigorous during the delimitation process with the intention of maximizing loco-regional control while limiting treatment-related effects. In this context, the HN workshop will focus mostly on the target volume quality delimitation (regarding anatomical and geometrical concepts) based on the most recent clinical evidence. Additionally, basic aspects regarding organs at risk delineation will also be described. This course is directed to any radiation oncologist or radiation technicians aiming to improve in this field.

These online delineation workshops are aimed at junior clinical or radiation oncologists who want to improve their contouring skills or at more senior specialists who want to refresh and validate their knowledge and skills in this field.

Before the workshop, pre-workshop homework will be sent out that needs to be complete before the workshop. This will be accompanied with prerecorded instructions how to use Falcon Educase and how to logon for the first session with Zoom. This will be sent one week before the first workshop lesson. On the first online lesson the faculty members will give a guideline presentation, and will review and comment your pre-workshop contours. Participants are requested to contour the case the second time based on the taught guidelines. On the second online lesson the faculty members will compare the first and the second submitted contours to the reference contours and generally comment the delineations.
