A scientific meeting organised by Dr Charles Kelly and the BIR’s Oncology Committee on behalf of the British Institute of Radiology.

This meeting will examine the treatment of lower gastrointestinal cancer with an emphasis on new and exciting innovations in cancer care. From the introduction of imaging advances in the GI tract, through the latest surgical techniques and molecular targets for colon cancer and GIST to the emerging role of brachytherapy in rectal cancer and life after the ACT2 trial, the latest techniques will be reviewed and examined and their roles critically appraised. The latest national and international trials of rectal brachytherapy will be introduced and summarised. We will be joined by international speakers to give a wide-ranging perspective on treatment advances.

This meeting would be of interest to:
Clinical and Medical Oncologists, Radiographers, Radiologists, Physicists and Specialist Nurses
