Radiation Therapy for Skin Cancer - Dermatology Office Appropriate or Too Hot to Handle?

Should dermatologists offer Image Guided Superficial Radiation Therapy (IGSRT) in-office or refer radiation oncologists when radiation is appropriate? Join Derms on Drugs as we tackle this "burning" question with two expert radiation oncologists. While dermatologists are THE skin cancer experts, radiation therapy isn't our usual domain— so is IGSRT a game-changer for your practice or too far outside our realm? Explore clinical insights, practical considerations, and the latest evidence to guide your decision-making. Perfect for dermatologists, PAs, NPs, residents, medical students, and pharma professionals in dermatology seeking to stay ahead of the curve. Tune in to discover if IGSRT could light up your approach to patient care—or leave you glowing in the dark.#Dermatology #SkinCancer #IGSRT #RadiationTherapy #DermEducation1.  Updated results of 3,050 non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) lesions in 1725 patients treated with high resolution dermal ultrasoundguided superficial radiotherapy, a multiinstitutional study ScholarsInMedicine.com2.  The Role of Image-Guided Superficial Radiation Therapy in the Treatment of Nonmelanoma Skin Cancer3.  Effectiveness and Patient Experiences of Rhenium Skin Cancer Therapy for Nonmelanoma Skin Cancer: Interim Results from the EPIC-Skin Study
