The postgraduate diploma in Advances in the Diagnosis, Treatment and Monitoring of Urothelial Carcinoma contains the most complete and up-to-date scientific program on the market”

The evolution of scientific knowledge in the field of oncology in general, and urological oncology in particular, allows us to offer systemic treatments directed at the same time to specific therapeutic targets. This reality is, if possible, even more evident in the field of Uro-Oncology. As a result of this current situation, the specialties of Urology and Oncology have been coming together such that there are many fields in which the boundaries between the two are not defined, mainly because they no longer exist.

Modern medicine leads its professionals to an ever-increasing and demanding super-specialization, which translates into the well-known oncology or multidisciplinary committees. We are convinced that the present challenges and those in the immediate future in the field of Uro-Oncology require a specific specialization that is only partially covered by the separate specializations, requiring an Expert of these characteristics to cover a real and growing need in modern Medicine.

The existence now of new molecules in the treatment of prostate cancer opens up a completely new scenario for our patients. Any professional who wants to treat these patients properly, urgently needs to acquire new knowledge in an easy and effective way, as the advent of so much new information will unequivocally overwhelm us. Only those physicians adequately specialized in uro-oncology will have the capacity to properly care for their patients, thus enabling them to continue aboard this already unstoppable train.

Don't miss the opportunity to update your knowledge of the advances in the diagnosis and treatment of urothelial carcinoma to improve patient care”

The postgraduate diploma in Advances in the Diagnosis, Treatment and Monitoring of Urothelial Carcinoma contains the most complete and up-to-date scientific program on the market. The most important features of the program include:

• Clinical cases presented by experts in the different specialties
• The graphic, schematic, and eminently practical contents with which they are created provide scientific and practical information on the disciplines that are essential for professional practice
• News on the Diagnosis, Treatment and Monitoring of Urothelial Carcinoma
• Algorithm-based interactive learning system for decision-making in the presented clinical situations
• With special emphasis on evidence-based medicine and research methodologies in Urologic Oncology
• All of this will be complemented by theoretical lessons, questions to the expert, debate forums on controversial topics, and individual reflection assignments
• Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection

This postgraduate diploma may be the best investment you can make in the selection of a refresher program for two reasons: in addition to updating your knowledge of the diagnosis and treatment of urothelial carcinoma, you will obtain a postgraduate diploma from TECH Technological University”

Forming part of the teaching staff is a group of professionals in the world of Urologic Oncology, who bring to this course their work experience, as well as a group of renowned specialists, recognised by esteemed scientific communities.

The multimedia content developed with the latest educational technology will provide the professional with situated and contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide immersive training program to train in real situations.

This program is designed around Problem Based Learning, whereby the physician must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise during the course. For this reason, you will be assisted by an innovative, interactive video system created by renowned and experienced experts in the field of uro-oncology who also have extensive teaching experience.

Increase your decision-making confidence by updating your knowledge with this postgraduate diploma in AAdvances in the Diagnosis, Treatment and Monitoring of Urothelial Carcinoma"

This program offers training in simulated environments, which provides an immersive learning experience designed to train for real-life situations"

The main objective of the program is the development of theoretical and practical learning, so that the urologist can rigorously and practically master the diagnosis and treatment of urothelial carcinoma.

This refresher program will generate a sense of confidence in the urologist when practising, which will help them grow both personally and professionally”
