Virtual UW-Madison/MCW Primary Central Nervous System Malignancy Symposium
The goal of this educational activity is to present a multidisciplinary approach to the clinical management of primary glioma. After attending, the participant will be able to discuss available, innovative clinical trial options and ideas for future clinical trials and also provide the latest updates on current treatment trends in neurosurgery, radiation oncology, and neuro-oncology.
Practice Gaps and Needs
This interprofessional primary glioma update will be a premier inaugural educational event in Wisconsin designed to educate the broader oncology community involved with caring for patients with primary glioma. This course will discuss current standard of interprofessional care management for patients with glioma as well as highlight advances in technology and medical care focused on improved outcomes and quality of life for patients with glioma.
Elements of Competence
This CE activity has been designed to improve learner competence and focuses on the American Board of Medical Specialties' areas of patient care and procedural skills, medical knowledge, and interpersonal and communication skills.
This activity also focuses on the interprofessional competencies of values/ethics for interprofessional practice, roles/responsibilities, interprofessional communication, and teams/teamwork.
Intended Audience
This activity is designed to educate medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, neurologists, neuropsychiatrists, neurosurgeons, pathologists, radiation oncologists, surgical oncologists, neuro-oncologists, advanced practice nurses, PAs, RNs and other healthcare providers on the clinical management of primary glioma.
Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this CE activity, members of the health care team will be able to:
- Describe new neurosurgical advances and techniques in the management of primary glioma.
- Report updates in the fields of radiation oncology and medical oncology in the management of patients with primary glioma.
- List all the clinical trials related to primary glioma.
