The HRA Advanced Course is dedicated to the in-depth study of high resolution anoscopy for the screening of anal dysplasia and the early diagnosis of precancerous lesions as well as to the latest technological advances to perform HRA procedures.

The course consists of two training modules led by different trainers under the coordination of the Tutor and Scientific Director of the Course.

The theory module will focus on epidemiology, incidence and HPV-induced carcinogenesis. During this part of the course, the anatomo-pathological criteria of pre-cancerous lesions, scientific evidence as well as the screening models will be also presented. On the same day, the equipment and the technique to perform High Resolution Anoscopy together with role of laser in the treatment of pre-cancerous diseases will be illustrated.

The practical module will take place on the second day of the course, starting with 3 Live Surgeries from the Operating Room of the Molinette Hospital involving patients suffering from H-SIL.

The equipment used will be the innovative THD modular platforms that allows multiple anorectal examinations and electrosurgical treatments to be performed. By means of THD integrated platforms it is possible to record high resolution videos and images of the anal canal as well as to treat AIN lesions in a safe and quick way.

The course is addressed to healthcare professionals who are already using it and want to learn more about the advantages of the THD integrated solutions for High-Resolution Anoscopy and minimally-invasive laser treatment.
