Thyroid Expo Advances in Thyroidology 2024

Why Attend?

Thyroid Expo Advances in Thyroidology 2024 Multidisciplinary guidelines for patient management are constantly updated on diverse topics in the treatment of thyroid disorders. Now more than ever, innovations in diagnostic tests, therapies, and surgical technologies are influencing patient care options. This year’s conference will cover topics such as molecular applications in thyroid neoplasia, practical management tips, advances in laboratory testing and new technologies in thyroid surgery with a goal of increasing competence and clinical performance in managing patients with routine and complex thyroid disorders to improve outcomes.

This one-day course will provide up-to-date reviews in the management of thyroid diseases with a focus on the advances in thyroid cancer care and will address key concepts through didactic lectures, panel discussion, and a special keynote presentation with ample time for interactive audience participation.
