New multidisciplinary guidelines for patient management
are issued annually on diverse topics in the treatment of
thyroid disease. In 2013, these included recent developments
in thyroid cancer pathology and challenging scenarios
encountered in benign thyroid disease. Now more than
ever, innovations in diagnostic tests, therapies, and surgical
technologies are influencing care options for patients with
thyroid disorders and thyroid cancer. The format of the course
is designed to address the key concepts of these advancements
during lectures, panel discussions, and a special keynote
address. Ample time will be allotted for participation by the
audience with question and answer sessions.
