MD Anderson
Sawyer Biliary Pancreatic SymposiumDecember 3, 2016MD Anderson, Dan L. Duncan BuildingConference Center, Floor 81155 Pressler StreetHouston, Texas
Program ChairsJeffrey H. Lee, MD, MPHManoop Bhutani, MD
Goal The goal of this symposium is to understand how cholangiocarcinoma and
other biliary pancreatic cancers can be best managed by clinicians in this
area. During this international symposium, the experts from various regions
of the world will share the findings of their research, clinical experience, and
recommendations regarding these cancers. We expect this symposium will
change the practice of the attendees who will acquire the state-of-the-art
clinical information about the diseases, thus improving the overall survival
of patients with the diseases.
Educational Objectives After attending the conference, participants should be able to
• Apply the best strategy to establish accurate and prompt diagnosis to
improve patient outcomes (Knowledge, Competence, Performance, Patient
Outcomes);
• Perform appropriate endoscopic procedures (Knowledge, Competence,
Performance);
• Interpret the strengths and limitations of different approaches in
managing biliary obstruction (Knowledge, Competence);
• Incorporate the best available chemotherapy regimen and radiation
treatment in patient care (Knowledge, Competence, Performance);
• Assess surgical candidates and provide appropriate referral to the
specialty in a timely manner to improve patient outcomes (Knowledge,
Competence, Performance, Patient Outcomes).
