CLINICAL PRE-MEETING COURSE

Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) in radiotherapy research and clinical practice FRIDAY 5 MAY, 2017 08:15-17:00 | SCHUBERT Course directors: C. Grau (DK) and T. Holch (UK) Course aim To provide an overview of the current and potential future roles of PROMs in radiotherapy research and routine care settings. Learning objectives On completion of this course, participants will be able to: • Assess the role of PROMs in clinical practice and within clinical trials • Evaluate the use of PROM-based models to predict patient risk of toxicity after radiotherapy and ion beam therapy • Examine radiotherapy dose-volume relationships involved in normal tissue complication probability (NTCP).

Who should attend? Clinicians, allied health care professionals and researchers interested in: • Improving their knowledge of the current and future role of PROMs • Improving patient outcomes in radiotherapy • Developing models predicting risk of radiotherapy toxicity.
