Description

Hone your critical reasoning and evaluation skills in a case review course designed to help you zero in on what is most clinically relevant for diagnosis, developing a management plan, and treatment approach in all essential Areas of Radiation Oncology. Emphasis is placed on the clinical management of malignant and benign diseases by requiring knowledge of anatomy, epidemiology, pathology, patterns of local, regional, and distal involvement, treatment modalities, radiation treatment planning, and treatment results, including prognosis complications.

The course opens with a lecture presentation on the critical reasoning and communication skills essential to passing the Oral Certification exam, which will be emphasized in the recorded mock orals available for viewing. The recorded mock orals cover relevant standards of care cases utilizing a half-hour mock oral exam with feedback format. In addition, participant volunteers and some of our best faculty were recorded in 25-minute virtual simulations of the Oral Board process, followed by faculty critique.

Course fees include participating in 2 private virtual mock oral scheduled during the three days encompassing the course. Participants may purchase additional mock orals if desired; however, topic availability may be limited near the start of the course. Participants are matched with faculty based on their topic selections.
