((( MASRO ))) - Mid-Atlantic Society of Radiation Oncologist

The Mid-Atlantic Society of Radiation Oncologists

Dear Colleague,

MASRO (Mid-Atlantic Society of Radiation Oncologists) is the regional radiation oncology society for the Mid-Atlantic States, which includes Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, DC. MASRO provides ACR's CARROS representative for this region. We are comprised of both private and academic physicians. We meet several times per year to discuss issues relating to radiation oncology, especially those which may be specific to our region. These meetings are held in conjunction with a scientific program, usually for CME credit. This year's topic is intracranial and extracranial stereotactic radiosurgery and radiotherapy. We have distinguished guest speakers, and will have updates on CPT coding and reimbursement. Please see the enclosed Save The Date pamphlet.

As a society, we would like to provide an opportunity to meet other radiation oncologists in the region, provide updates on current issues and technologies, and give residents in training a chance to present their research and prepare for their presentation at the ASTRO meeting. This would also give residents a chance to meet established radiation oncologists who may have job openings in their practice. We are in the process of reconstructing the MASRO web site, and when complete, will provide the list of upcoming meetings, officers, current members, and helpful links for questions relating to practice management and reimbursement.

Thank you for taking time from your busy schedules. We hope that you will consider becoming a member of our society.

Sincerely,

Michael F. Dzeda, MD

President
