Overview
Synergy 2014
This annual symposium offers attendees a review of a
variety of oncological diseases combined with the latest
developments in medical, interventional and surgical
therapeutic options across multiple disciplines.
A practical overview of how to incorporate emerging therapies into practice will be
included with emphasis on the multidisciplinary approach needed to achieve the
highest levels of success in the fight against cancer.
Leading experts from national and international programs will present the latest data and treatment innovations for
oncological challenges in multiple organ systems with emphasis on implementation from diagnosis to treatment.
The meeting will be didactic and interactive with panel discussions and instructive case presentations focused on
hepatocellular carcinoma, lung cancer, metastatic colorectal cancer, cholangiocarcinoma and liver metastases, renal and
prostate cancer, pancreatic cancer, neuroendocrine, musculoskeletal tumors and palliative treatment options. A Nursing
Symposium will also be presented on the last day of the conference.
Gap Analysis
In the past few years, interventional oncology has evolved into an important subspecialty as more interventional
radiologists are actively involved in the management of oncologic patients. Unlike other procedures handled by
interventional radiologists, interventional oncology requires an in-depth understanding of the different types of
cancers, current standards and proper use of treatment choices and working with a multidisciplinary group. Synergy
2014 will be a forum for the convergence of the expertise and knowledge of various specialists involved in oncologic
care to promote better understanding and improved outcomes of patient care.
Target Audience
Interventional radiologists, oncologists, radiation oncologists, transplant and oncologic surgeons, hepatologists,
gastroenterologists, urologists and nurse practitioners/nurses and allied healthcare professionals.
Learning Objectives
At the completion of the course, attendees will be able to:
• Identify the current oncological problems faced in a variety of organ systems
• Implement modern multidisciplinary techniques for diagnosis and intervention in the treatment of cancer
• Incorporate modern interventional radiology therapeutic techniques in cancer treatment
