Get updated in the most effective approach to Intraocular Tumors in adult patients with TECH”

Intraocular Tumors can affect different parts of the eye, such as the iris, choroid, retina and ciliary body. In addition, they may present in different forms, from pigmented lesions to vascular tumors. Effectively dealing with such tumors in adults requires a detailed and up-to-date knowledge of the available diagnostic techniques and treatments, as well as a thorough understanding of the biology of these tumors and their clinical behavior.

It is in this context that the Postgraduate diploma in Intraocular Tumors in Adults is presented, a preparation program designed to provide Ophthalmology professionals with a valuable update in this field. The program addresses the main aspects of Ocular Oncology, including epidemiology, risk factors, diagnostic techniques and treatments for the most frequent Intraocular Tumors in adult patients.

In addition, this academic opportunity is presented completely online, allowing students to access the contents from anywhere and at any time, adapting their pace of study to their personal and professional needs. In addition, the pedagogical methodology of Relearning is used, which promotes active and collaborative learning based on a directed reiteration of ideas through dynamic resources such as interactive diagrams, videos in detail or case studies.
