Think hadrom. Discovering hadrontherapy within multidisciplinarity. Focus on the therapeutic management of bone and soft tissue sarcomas

Acquisizione competenze tecnico-professionali:The course is focused on the therapeutic management of bone and soft tissue sarcomas according to international guidelines, highlighting the importance of the multidisciplinary approach. A special accent is put on the use of particle therapy, on both protons and carbon ions which have gained significant interest due to their advantageous physical and radiobiologic properties compared to photon-based therapy. Based on such unique properties, particle therapy may allow dose escalation to tumours while reducing radiation dose to adjacent normal tissues. furthermore carbon ion rt (cirt) based on the higher radiobiological effectiveness has emerged as a promising strategy for the treatment of a variety of malignancies including bone and soft tissue sarcomas with poor radiosensitivity.
