session DESCRIPTION

Step beyond the traditional boundaries of oncology and into the future of Functional Radiation Medicine. This high-impact workshop explores the transformative potential of low-dose radiotherapy for non-malignant conditions, spanning the treatment of degenerative and inflammatory diseases to emerging indications in the CNS and cardiac space. Attendees will gain invaluable knowledge in the science of low-dose efficacy, safety data, and multidisciplinary practice-building, providing the essential roadmap for any clinician looking to lead at the frontier of functional treatment and patient quality of life.

This workshop is considered an event add-on and requires separate registration and an additional fee.
