Role of FDG-PET in Paediatric Hodgkin and Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas
June 27, 2024 – 09:00 – June 28, 2024 – 17:00 CEST
A large oncological framework will be the topic of the first session: three lectures by a high quoted Paediatric Oncologist: epidemiology, aetiological factors, and general classification of Paediatric Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin Lymphomas and main therapeutic strategies and prognostic considerations. The two valuable nuclear medicine experts will discuss the role of molecular imaging in paediatric lymphomas: staging and therapeutic management, the importance of the imaging-based assessment, the role of Deauville classification, prognostic aspects, surveillance, and the management of recurrent/treatment resistant forms in PHL and NHL. Current state of experimental tracers research. Future perspectives: novel radiotracers, evaluation of rare entities and advanced image analysis.
Many case readings will be presented to the attendees to train them in interpreting and concluding 18FDG in the crucial assessment point into diagnostic- therapeutic PHL and NHL protocols.
Each attendee is also asked to present a personal tricky case, proposed to the experts and to the other attendees. This allows better communication among the attendees and a more interactive practical session.
Target Audience
- Residents, NM specialist approaching paediatric ematology-oncology
Learning Objectives
- The aim of this course is initially to refresh and update clinical setting from the point of view of the pediatric Oncologist: epidemiology, aetiological factors, and general classification of Pediatric Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin Lymphomas and main therapeutic strategies.
- The two nuclear medicine experts will discuss the role of molecular imaging in paediatric lymphomas and about the importance of imaging-based assessment, and the role of Deauville classification in the main forms of PHL and NHL.
- The current state of experimental tracers research and future perspectives: novel radiotracers, evaluation of rare entities and advanced image analysis. Two interactive sessions with a lot of case reading to train the attendees in the evaluation, interpretation and comparison of 18FDG-PET-CT.
