SYMPOSIUM
Non-rectal GI tumours: key open questions to be answered from (and
for) the radiation oncologist!
14:45 - 16:15 | AUDITORIUM
This session will focus on key questions in oesophageal, pancreatic and anal cancer.
M. Hulshof will cover topics such as optimal radiotherapy dose and schedule in
different treatment settings. Following, the lecture will expand on non-conventional
tumour volume margin prescription and the importance of fiducials for accurate
targeting. E. Fokas will discuss the rationale for radiotherapy in the context of R1-
resection and local failure in pancreatic cancer, its controversial role, the neoadjuvant
concept and what will take to “salvage” radiotherapy in the disease. Finally, R.
Muirhead will give an overview on the current treatment options in anal cancer, the
advances in radiotherapy technique and imaging, toxicity and future dose escalation/
de-escalation trials.
