San Diego Welcomes the

2023 ASTRO Annual Meeting

October 1-4, 2023

Welcome to San Diego

Welcome to San Diego where good vibes, fresh air and a wide open coastline are calling. Make sure to add on a day or two outside of the conference to enjoy everything from sparkling beaches to laid-back neighborhoods, explore the cultural wonders of Balboa Park, take an epic coastal hike or discover your new favorite restaurant. Whatever makes you smile, there's more of it waiting for you when you stay a few extra days in San Diego.

ASTRO’s Annual Meeting is the premier radiation oncology scientific event in the world and draws more than 8,500 attendees each year. The theme for the 2023 ASTRO Annual Meeting is “Pay it Forward: Partnering with Our Patients.” The meeting will focus on the patient perspective and engagement to develop and advance research by elevating clinical trials, addressing the integral role of research in patient care, and providing a diverse education program featuring clinical and scientific advancements. The program will also feature learning paths that focus on professional development and strategies to strengthen patient-centered care while empowering radiation oncology professionals across the cancer care community. The program will emphasize patient quality and safety issues in the delivery of radiation therapy, especially advanced radiation techniques such as stereotactic body radiation therapy. The program will address the disease sites most commonly treated in radiation oncology, the equipment and software used, terminology and professional roles and multidisciplinary care team responsibilities. Program content has been designed to address specific documented and clinically important practice gaps in physician knowledge and competence including disparities and inequities in radiation oncology. There also will be increased involvement of patients and patient advocates who will provide valuable input in all aspects of the meeting design.
