Society of Gynecologic Oncologists to Host 39th Annual Meeting on Women's Cancer
Date:2/11/2008

SGO hosts this annual meeting to not only offer educational opportunities, but to also spotlight the newest, emerging research focused on identifying and ultimately eradicating these diseases.

"The theme "Scientific Innovation -- Pathway to Progress in Women's Cancer" reflects where we as a profession are with regard to addressing these diseases," comments Dr. Berchuck. "Since the 1970s we have made some tremendous progress and witnessed remarkable achievement in the quality of care made available to our patients. But we still have miles to go. The research, trials and technological advances featured at this meeting will keep us on track in searching for the ultimate cure."

The comprehensive, broad range of educational programming offered at the Annual Meeting mirrors the core competencies of gynecologic oncologists -- surgical disease management, medical/oncologic/radio-therapeutic treatment, preventative medicine and scientific research. The meeting traditionally attracts medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, obstetrician/gynecologists, oncology nurses and allied health professionals who care for women with gynecologic malignancies. "We want everyone involved in caring for women with these diseases to have a strong knowledge base about what is currently available, what is new, and what is on the horizon with regard to treating these diseases," adds Dr. Berchuck. "It is also important for women to know about these cancers, the symptoms and the risk factors. They should be aware of the most up-to-date prevention and treatment options available - be it the HPV vaccine, new surgical procedures or the opportunity to participate in clinical trials.

The SGO is a national medical specialty organization of physicians who are trained in the comprehensive management of women with malignancies of the reproductive tract. Its purpose is to improve the care of women with gynecologic cancer by encouraging research, disseminating knowledge which wi
