Acculis exhibits at ANZHPBA

Assessment, Management and Outcomes” to be

held at the Hyatt Regency Coolum on the Sunshine

Coast of Queensland. The meeting is convened

by the ANZHPBA in association with the AGITG

(Australasian Gastrointestinal Trials Group).

A very knowledgeable international faculty has

been assembled consisting of Markus Büchler

from Heidelberg, Germany, James Garden from

Edinburgh, Merv Rees from Basingstoke, Ibrahim

Dagher from Paris and Paul Greig from Toronto,

all surgeons. I’m very pleased that the group of

visiting surgeons will be complemented by Nigel

Hacking, a radiologist from Southampton, UK and

a strong local faculty from both the ANZHPBA and

the AGITG.

A challenging programme has been designed to

stimulate significant discussion and hopefully to

identify some gaps for further investigation in a

rapidly progressing area of clinical endeavour.

allow some free time for informal interaction and I

trust this time will be well utilised. There will be a

welcome barbecue on the Sunday evening and the

Conference dinner on Tuesday evening. For both

of these events special wines will be supplied to

showcase the capabilities of Australian viticulture.

The programme has been stratified to cater for

selective individual day attendance if desired. The

first 2 days focus on the liver and metastatic disease

in addition to some sections on accumulating

evidence. The third day is dedicated mainly to

hepatocellular cancer and the fourth day to surgical

technique.
