Event Overview

Nuclear Medicine-related Highlights from ESMO 2025
2025-11-07 13:30 - 14:30
This ESMO 2025 webinar will cover a range of topics, including the latest advancements treatment options, imaging modalities and performant tracers related to solid and liquid tumors. The focus of this Live event will be the recent advances in solid & liquid tumor treatment, clinical trials and emerging therapies, biomarkers in solid tumors and multidisciplinary approaches. The importance of collaboration among medical oncologists, radiologists, nuclear medicine physicians, pathologists and surgeons will be underlined, based on clinical examples. Challenges and opportunities in immunotherapy for solid tumors will also be addressed, with special attention for personalized treatment plans in specific cancers, like lung cancer, breast cancer, colorectal and prostate cancer.

Please note that the webinar will be recorded, and the recording will be available a few days after the session is over. You can find the recording on the ESMIT E-learning platform, under the webinar title. A handout of the presentation materials will also be available on the platform.
