Recent developments in imaging, its successful incorporation in treatment planning, optimization and clinical outcome is emerging. Guidelines and position papers are important but each milieu will have its own limitations and solutions. The aim of this conference is to strengthen the skill and art of Brachytherapy in this emerging era of technology for basic training and continuing professional development across clinical oncologists, radiation oncologists, medical physicists and radiographers. Also, it is equally important to customize and adopt available technology and facilities to strengthen brachytherapy across different sites. During the deliberations, we will try to provide comprehensive information on current clinically relevant brachytherapy practice, replete with recent evidence and research avenues.
