discussions including new case scenarios. The learning
process enables the participants to identify the correct
active way for case management and to identify possi-
ble flaws and mistakes. The individualised case-based
learning process will provide an adapted feedback
between teaching staff and participants.
Case exercises including clinical information and techni-
cal aspects (contouring and application of technologies)
permit a comprehensive acquisition of knowledge that
can be transferred to different clinical scenarios (en-
hanced emersion of clinical cases in clinical practice).
