FALCON (Fellowship in Anatomic deLineation and CONtouring) is the multifunctional
ESTRO platform for contouring and delineation. Attending a FALCON contouring
workshop offers the opportunity for individual professionals:

guidelines
• to learn the indications proposed by experts
• to discuss with other participants, experts and panelists
• to adopt delineation guidelines in order to further integrate themselves into daily practice.
