Supplement your learning for the ISUOG Course 'Endometriosis and gynecologic oncology: do they have something in common?' with the following learning resources.
Join us in London for 'Endometriosis and gynecologic oncology: do they have something in common?' on Friday 29th of November 2019. Endometriosis and gynecologic cancer are challenging to diagnose on ultrasound. This course will offer an update on the scientific literature dealing with endometriosis, cancer in endometriosis and the appearance of deep endometriosis as well as carcinomatosis on ultrasound examination. The interactive aspect of the course, based on clinical cases, will give the attendees the possibility to share their knowledge with experienced ultrasound examiners.
