5th Annual Dermatologic Care in Oncology Symposium

5th Annual Dermatologic Care in Oncology Symposium is organized by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and would be held on Oct 21, 2016 at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center - Rockefeller Research Laboratories Auditorium, New York, United States of America.

The target audience for this medical event are basically for Oncologists, Oncology Nurses and Advanced Practitioners. Chemotherapy, radiation, and therapeutic transplants have resulted in remarkable improvements in patient survival. Despite this remarkable success, the majority of patients will develop dermatologic, ocular and mucosal adverse events, which lead to decreased quality of life and inconsistent antineoplastic therapy, both of which may affect clinical outcome. This CME conference has been approved with a maximum of 6.00 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.

Educational Objectives :
• Recognize impact on quality of life, clinical presentation, and grading of dermatologic, ocular, and mucosal adverse events in cancer patients.
• Understand mechanisms and interventions to prevent and treat dermatologic, ocular, and mucosal conditions in patients treated for cancer.
• Discuss basic dermatologic procedures and clinical tools to assess dermatologic, ocular, and mucosal conditions in cancer patients.
