Invited Speaker:
| A/Prof. Martin Desrosiers A/Prof. Desrosiers is an internationally recognised expert in the field of chronic sinusitis. He specialises in nasal and sinus disorders, with special interests in medical management of difficult to treat sinus disease and endoscopic surgery of the para-nasal sinuses and skull base. |
Faculty:
| Dr Richard Gallagher A/Prof. Richard Harvey A/Prof. Raymond Sacks Dr Janet Rimmer |
Prof. Connie Katerlaris A/Prof. Debbie Marriott Dr Julian Adler Dr Brendan Yee |
All three surgical members of the Faculty have a wide experience in the management of sinus disease and endoscopic surgical techniques. They are joined by leading physicians involved in the management of upper airways disease. They are all actively involved in teaching and research.
About the Course:
The course is aimed at respiratory physicians, immunologists, allergists and other specialities who are interested in the diagnosis and management of upper airways disease. There is a focus on integrated medical and surgical management. Modern concepts of airways disease, inflammatory processes and an evidence based approach will be discussed.
There is a 'hands on' rhinoscopy cadaver lab, on Thursday evening, with an instructional session on rigid and flexible endoscopy of the upper airway. Live surgery is planned on Friday morning in conjunction with the broader surgical course. Lectures and discussions will prepare the participants for the two sessions.
