New Horizons in NET Management NANETS Conference 2008, Southampton Bermuda The North American Neuroendocrine Tumor Society (NANETS) held its first conference on 8-9 February 2008 at the lovely Fairmont Hotel, overlooking the beachfront in Southampton Bermuda. Unlike other neuroendocrine tumor conferences that are patient-oriented, this event was designed for physicians and other health professionals. The program of the conference focused on detection, diagnosis and treatment of neuroendocrine tumor (NET) disease. Leading experts in the field discussed different aspects of epidemiology, biochemical evaluation, imaging, histopathology, surgery, and various therapies in regard to specific NET origins. Attendees earned credits from the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education through the joint sponsorship of Oregon Health & Science University and NANETS. The hallmark of this event was its emphasis on developing an interdisciplinary approach to diagnosis and treatment of NET diseases. The presentations and poster sessions covered recent scientific progress and insights from ongoing clinical trials. The audience members had many opportunities for questions and networking with the faculty. All the plenary presentations were recorded, and may be reviewed in audio, video, or video synchronised with the presentation graphics.
