AIS CHANNEL - The ultimate surgical training experience!

Rectal Cancer is a prevalent pathology that requires a coordinated and multidisciplinary work. Each specialist plays a relevant role in the treatment of these patients.

Surgeons, pathologists, gastroenterologists, oncologists, radiotherapists and radiologists should combine efforts to follow the best strategies and provide tailored therapies for rectal cancer patients to achieve the best results.

A board of world experts will meet on December 18th to share their experience globally. They will give their point of view on treatment of a real rectal cancer patient from diagnosis to treatment.

This event will combine the latest data with modern technology and innovative approaches and the AIS Community will have the opportunity to interact with the best group of experienced professionals in the field of rectal cancer.
