Advanced Neurosurgical Oncology Simulation Course

Join us at this unique neuro-surgical oncology simulation course at Queen Square, London. Expert speakers will update you with high-yield talks on hot topics in the field, perfect for exam preparation or ensuring your practice remains up to date. Then you will experience 7 advanced hands-on stations and cutting-edge simulation covering the full-spectrum of modern neurooncology practice and techniques.

Practical sessions are taught in small groups with individual guidance by leading consultant faculty. You will use advanced visualisation (Microscope/Endoscope/Exoscope) combined with top surgical instruments to explore, manipulate, and dissect the latest neurosurgical models in a high-fidelity setting.

Topics covered are the most challenging and relevant to modern neurosurgical-oncology practice; amongst others these include motor/language stimulation mapping, fluorescent surgical techniques, en bloc metastatectomy, endoscopic intraventricular tumour surgery, and splitting the Sylvian fissue/handling vessels. Take your functional neuro-anatomy knowledge to the next level with augmented/mixed reality, and enjoy a top-gun skills competition, prizes, 6 CME points and much more. And after this let us host you for a course dinner at a premier London location - all included in the registration fee.
