This comprehensive review is designed to provide senior trainees and/or clinicians in practice a comprehensive update of clinical knowledge as well as to help them prepare for their Radiation Oncology exams (initial certification and MOC).  The 4-day course includes didactic lectures with embedded review questions for each topic, esyllabus (containing PDFs of all PowerPoint presentations), and designated Q&A sessions.  Emphasis is on evidence-based medicine and board-relevant standards of care as well as new concepts, treatments, and imaging approaches.  In addition, the course will cover the basic principles of radiobiology and physics that are relevant to clinical practice.  The written exams emphasize anatomy, epidemiology, etiological agents, natural history, pathology, tumor markers, initial clinical evaluation, staging, routes of spread, selection of treatment modality and techniques, surgical and chemotherapy adjuvant treatments, follow-up treatment and evaluation, patterns of failure, and normal tissue effects including complications; all of these areas will be addressed in this course

Hone your critical reasoning and evaluation skills in an intensive 3-day case review course designed to help you zero in on what is most clinically relevant for diagnosis, developing a management plan, and treatment approach. Emphasis is placed on the clinical management of malignant and benign disease by requiring knowledge of anatomy; epidemiology; pathology; patterns of local, regional and distal involvement; treatment modalities; radiation treatment planning; and results of treatment including prognosis and complications.

The course begins with a lecture on the critical reasoning skills and communication skills that will be emphasized during the exams to follow.  The remainder of the course consists of a series of board-relevant case reviews presented as half-hour public mock oral exams followed by faculty feedback.  Participants and faculty review one-on-one in a 25-minute simulation of the oral board process followed by faculty critique; 7-10 cases are reviewed in each 30-minute session for a total of 140-200 case reviews per day.  Course fees include participating in two complimentary public mock oral exams and observing other participants being examined – learn from doing and from observing.  Participants are matched with faculty based on their topic selections.  Participants may purchase additional mock orals if desired (public or private); however, availability may be limited within two weeks of the start of the course.  Please contact the Osler office prior to that time to insure availability. Enter Mock Oral topic preference(s) in indicated box that appears during the registration process.

The Osler Institute utilized state of the art equipment to record our Live 2016 comprehensive Radiation Oncology Biology and Physics Review Course and bring it to you! These video files are stored “in the cloud” so you can stream them anywhere, anytime, as long as you have an internet connection. This review provides senior trainees and/or clinicians in practice a comprehensive update of clinical knowledge and helps prepare them for their Radiation Oncology exams (initial certification and MOC). Emphasis is on evidence-based medicine and board-relevant standards of care as well as new concepts, treatments, imaging applications and the molecular and cellular biology principles on which they are based. Both radiation biology and physics topics are covered.
