2024 Pediatric Neuro Conference and Brain Tumor Board - 8/26/2024

Monday, August 26, 2024, 3:30 PM - 4:30 PM, Zoom calls and Lowder Cain Conference Room


The care of children with brain tumors and neurologic disorders requires an integrated multidisciplinary group of physicians and ancillary health care workers to manage all aspects of their diseases and provide the best, most current therapies for these patients. The Pediatric NeuroConference/Brain Tumor board allows this multidisciplinary team to come together to discuss each patient (new and recurrent patients), to learn about care and management options, and to determine the best course of action. The incorporation of Neuro-Oncology, Neurology, Neurosurgery, Neuro-Radiology, and Radiation Oncology teams in a combined conference allows for a more comprehensive learning experience regarding a wide spectrum of disorders involving the brain and CNS and their associated treatments.

Objective(s): 1 Describe the current treatment options for the disorder discussed. 2 Discuss the diagnostic tools used to make diagnosis. 3 Discuss the epidemiology of the disease process discussed. 4 Apply the information discussed to the care of patients.
Location: Zoom calls and Lowder Cain Conference Room
Specialties: Hematology/Oncology, Neurology, Pathology, Radiology, Neurosurgery
