Episode 33: Career Pathways for Musculoskeletal Oncologist | "Path 1": The Educator
Musculoskeletal oncology (or Orthopaedic Oncology) is the field that is focused on diagnosing and treating cancers or tumors that affect bone and soft tissue. This requires a complex understanding of surgical, medical, radiologic and pathologic principles with a goal of ensuring optimal patient outcomes, and preserving function as well as quality of life. Along with the above, musculoskeletal oncologists pursue many career pathways that intersect and are woven into the fabric of providing care. In this first episode of our multi-part series, we discuss the Education Pathway, along with its challenges and successes, with an esteemed panel.
This episode was held at the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society Meeting in Chicago Illinois on September 11, 2024

Sarcomas are rare cancers that affect bone and soft tissue. Due to their rarity, a diagnosis of sarcoma can be difficult to navigate and the impact on individuals and families are far reaching. The goal of this podcast is to improve sarcoma education for patients, friends, families and trainees. Our goal is to shed light on the diagnostic workup, treatment and follow up process for patients diagnosed with sarcoma or other tumors of bone and soft tissue treated by orthopedic oncologists.
