Angela Lamarca, Consultant in Medical Oncology at Jimenez Diaz Foundation University Hospital, shared on X:
“Our clinical case involving radioguided surgery, presented by Luisa Martinez from the Nuclear Medicine department at Fundación Jiménez Díaz ENETS CoE, wins the Second Prize for Best Clinical Case at Grupo Getne.
I love seeing how things work out when we work together.”
The presentation focused on radioguided surgery for neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) – a specialized multidisciplinary technique connecting Nuclear Medicine and Surgical Oncology.
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) can be notoriously difficult for surgeons to locate during an operation because they are often small, deeply embedded in tissue (such as the pancreas or gastrointestinal tract), or hidden behind scar tissue from previous surgeries.
GETNE Clinical Case Competition: The Grupo GETNE annual symposium hosts a dedicated Concurso de Casos Clínicos (Clinical Case Competition) specifically designed to highlight complex, real-world diagnostic and therapeutic challenges managed by medical residents across Spain. Winning Second Prize recognizes the high clinical value of integrating nuclear medicine directly into the operating room for complex NET cases.
