A cardiothoracic webinar in collaboration with The Society for Heart Failure & Transplantation and The Indian Association of Cardiovascular-Thoracic Surgeon
Join Drs. Leonidas Tapias and Michael Krainock as they review the latest clinical data supporting the use of ctDNA for molecular residual disease (MRD) assessment in resectable NSCLC. Learn how MRD helps identify NSCLC patients who remain at high recurrence risk after surgery and detects recurrence before radiographic imaging. The webinar will conclude with a review of real-world case studies, practical considerations for implementing MRD testing in routine practice, and future directions for research.
Our theme, Teaching for Tomorrow Together, honors STS’s dedication to innovation, training the next generation of cardiothoracic surgeons, and moving the specialty forward through collaboration and community.
Best Practices for Cardiothoracic Surgery is a 2-day virtual event that provides coders, surgeons, and billing professionals with the latest updates to CPT and physician coding and reimbursement, which affect cardiothoracic surgical practices.
Learn about the different facets of STS advocacy, what it can do for you, and how you can make a lasting impact on the cardiothoracic surgery specialty. Presenters share how STS advocacy intersects with everyday aspects of members' surgical practices, as well as their personal, professional, and institutional priorities from quality improvement to coding and reimbursement.
Recently the American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer (CoC) updated its Quality of Care Measures for CoC-accredited cancer programs to treat patients. In this episode of the STS Webinar Series, an expert panel discusses the rationale behind the revised CoC Standard 5.8, how implementation of the new measures can optimize surgical processes and improve patient outcomes—and how to react when your institution’s performance reports indicate you could do more.
