2021 ERS:Panel discussion: Improving the pathway of lung cancer patients, can we do it better?

Facilitated by the European Respiratory Society (ERS)

When: 16 December, 2021 | Online, 18:00–19:00 CET

Chairs: Ms. Andreja Šajnić (Zagreb, Croatia)

Novelties in past few years in treatment lung cancer have expanded, and by entering molecular testing as diagnostic tool open possibilities for lung cancer patients with targeted therapies that provides better quality of life and longer survival.

Educational aims

• Discussion will take place about importance of diagnostic and show recent improvements in targeted therapies in lung cancer patients.
• The goal of this webinar is to get acquainted with molecular testing in diagnostic procedure in lung cancer patients.
• This webinar will emphasize proper sample collecting and deliver to the laboratory.
• Participants will base on the acquired knowledge that proper sampling in diagnostic procedure in lung cancer patients gets shorter and efficient.

Format

• Panel discussion
• Lectures will be provided with examples and new studies in this field
• Case presentations from clinical field
• Quizzes, multiple choice questions
• Patient’s experience: results from on-line survey

Topics/Programme

• Novelties in target therapies
• Multidisciplinary approach integrated in diagnostic pathway
• Histology Sample Preparation
• Value of diagnostic methods in lung cancer
• Patient’s experience on oncological pathway
