I CONGRESS of
Macedonian Association of Radiotherapy and Oncology
26–28 NOVEMBER 2026 Hilton Skopje • Skopje, North Macedonia
Congress Concept
The I Congress of Macedonian Association of Radiotherapy and Oncology is a clinically focused meeting centered on multidisciplinary decision- making, precision oncology and modern radiotherapy. Each tumor-specific session follows the patient pathway from diagnosis and molecular characterisation to surgery, systemic treatment, radiotherapy and coordinated follow-up, with difficult clinical cases used to translate current evidence into practical treatment decisions.
Programme principles
- Practice-changing clinical evidence presented through real treatment decisions and patient scenarios
- Integrated pathology, imaging and molecular diagnostics in every major tumour track.
- Clear positioning of surgery, systemic therapy, radiotherapy and combined-modality treatment.
- Dedicated sessions on Molecular Tumour Boards, treatment actionability and modern radiotherapy.
- Case-based MDT discussions focused on sequencing, escalation, de-escalation and toxicity.
- International faculty exchange supporting consistent, evidence-based multidisciplinary care.
