1 ESO ADVANCED COURSES, SEMINARS AND SYMPOSIA GOLNIK 17/06/10 COURSE ON LUNG CANCER AND MESOTHELIOMA June 2010 Golnik, Slovenia Chair: T. Cufer, SI - G.L. Ceresoli, IT

2 AIM OF THE COURSE The incidence of lung cancer and mesothelioma is still increasing in Central Eastern Europe, especially in younger ages and in women. With new treatment modalities patients are living longer but there is still a lack of proper palliative care measurements in many societies. In addition, methods of early detection, even though still very scarce, needs to be improved. The course would be aimed to improve knowledge on all aspects of lung cancer and mesothelioma care among different medical specialists, thus improving multidisciplinary approach and lung cancer care in CEE region. TARGET AUDIENCE Practicing pulmonologists, general practitioners, medical oncologists and radiation oncologists, thoracic surgeons, and trainees in these specialties. FACULTY G.L.
