Are you interested in starting a thermal oncology service at your cancer center?

Do you currently offer hyperthermia but would like more training?

Are you interested in increasing your center's revenue stream?

All of these questions will be answered, plus hands-on training in superficial, interstitial, and deep regional hyperthermia, alongside the thermal medicine community's most experienced hyperthermia experts. Whether your a physician, physicist, RT, nurse, or practice manager, you will benefit from the experience of this two-day intensive course.

At the conclusion of this activity, participants will be able to:

• Recall all the components required to establish a hyperthermia therapy program
• Distinguish the different biology of tumors and healthy tissues during elevated temperatures
• Decide proper patient eligibility for hyperthermia treatments and the adequate modality: interstitial, superficial, or deep hyperthermia therapy
• Define the radio- and chemosensitization effects induced by hyperthermia
• Describe the physics of radio waves and microwaves as well as the need for water bolus 
• Explain how to position the different hyperthermia applicators relative to the patient and define the need for multiple treatment sites
• Perform treatment delivery of interstitial, superficial, and deep hyperthermia therapy
• Analyze and report hyperthermia therapy treatment data
• Implement the clinical workflow, documentation, and reimbursement of hyperthermia treatments

Developed by the world-renowned University of Maryland, attending this CME credited program will ultimately benefit your patients.
