Improve your knowledge through this program, where you will find the best didactic material with real clinical cases. Learn here about the latest advances in the specialty to be able to perform a quality medical practice"

Recent studies have reported a reduction in lung cancer mortality among current and former smokers with a minimum of 30 packs/year following the use of low dose helical computed tomography, and have provided sufficient evidence to establish strong international recommendations for lung cancer prevention.

Therefore, a more frequent future presentation of lung cancer will be by a solitary pulmonary nodule, a relevant fact because diagnosis at advanced stages has been the norm in the last 30 years and the reason for the low prevalence of this disease. 

Nowadays, talking about oncology means talking about "multidisciplinary teams", about advances in fields of science that are increasingly involved, and this, apart from being interesting, requires continuous specialization that is often difficult to acquire in other training programs or congresses since they are oriented to a very specific area and related to a single specialty.

Not losing this multidisciplinary vision is very important because many advances in one area can have implications in the diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms used in oncology. In fact, one of the skills that TECH intends the students to achieve with this postgraduate certificate is to have a broad and clear vision of Oncology, and to use the comparison of scientific advances in each area as a tool that will allow them to advance in their knowledge.

General Objective

• To create a global and up to date vision of thoracic oncology and all its aspects, allowing the student to acquire useful knowledge and, at the same time, to generate interest in expanding the information and discovering its application in daily practice

Specific Objectives

• Review the performance and usefulness of each of the tests used in the diagnosis of thoracic tumors 
• Describe the usefulness and performance of PET/CT with F18-FDG in the diagnosis, staging, treatment control and monitoring of thoracic tumors
• Learn more about thoracic MRI since it provides very complete anatomical information that can be fundamental for the patient's treatment, in addition to a functional assessment, and on many occasions its tissue characterization
• Review of available diagnostic tests for the assessment of cardiopulmonary reserve, necessary for the identification of patients at high risk of developing perioperative complications and significant long-term functional limitation after resection surgery
• Review the changes proposed for the new edition of the TNM, which imply a more accurate tumor staging
