EBM 2010
8th Annual Conference on
Evidence Based Management
of Cancers in India
Theme - Urological Cancers
February 26 - 28, 2010
The 8th Annual Conference on “Evidence Based
Management of Cancer in India” will focus on the
important area of Urological Cancers.
During the course of this conference, we plan to review
and discuss the best available evidence pertaining to
common clinical situations in the management of
urological cancers as well as the controversial and
contentious issues. To discuss this evidence, we have
invited reputed international and national faculty,
renowned for their academic contribution and
excellence in their respective specialities.
Over 3 days of the conference, a wide range of topics
ranging from screening to optimum diagnostic pathways
and therapeutic approaches will be discussed. There
have been significant advances in all aspects of
management of these cancers over the last decade and
evidence behind these advances needs to be reviewed
critically and dispassionately in terms of oncological
outcome, morbidity, fertility issues and quality of life
considerations. This evidence will then be collated to
evolve evidence based guidelines which would be
practicable in our country- both at an institutional level
as well as for the practising specialists.
Our EBM meetings are known for their high scientific
content and interactive discussions in an academic
ambience; and we assure you that we will continue this
tradition with this meeting. This meeting is aimed at
Urologists, Urologic Oncologists, Surgical, Medical and
Radiation Oncologists, General Surgeons as well as other
clinicians involved in the management of these cancers.
I invite you to register for this conference and use this
opportunity to take home clear evidence based
guidelines which will ultimately translate into improved
patient care.
