Thank you for your interest in the Anatomy & Radiology Contouring (ARC) Bootcamp for Radiation Oncology residents. In the era of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), the ability to accurately delineate a target volume, to identify areas at risk for subclinical disease, and accurately delineate normal anatomical structures has become more important than ever before. Today’s radiation oncologist requires a thorough understanding of radiographic imaging and clinical anatomy.
This national course was created especially for radiation oncology residents by a multidisciplinary group of clinicians and educators who are passionate about teaching and committed to improving patient care. In addition to detailed clinical content, each presentation will highlight high-yield knowledge of anatomy and radiology. Specifically dissected cadaveric prosections will be used to reinforce key learning points and difficult anatomical concepts such as lymph node drainage pathways. Contouring instruction will be provided, as will opportunities to practice contouring with direct feedback. Small group teaching sessions will also allow residents to interact with faculty and students from across the country.
We believe that you will find this integrated Anatomy and Radiology Contouring Bootcamp to be an exceptional educational experience.
Sincerely,
The Planning Committee
