WINTER SCHOOL 2023
Occupational diseases: focus on pulmonary/thoracic pathology
University of Padova - February 13-17, 2023
FOCUS OF THE COURSE
Occupational lung/thoracic diseases arise or worsen in particular work environments. They are caused by longterm exposure to irritants that can have lasting and irreversible effects, even after the end of exposure. Although the etiological agents are known, it is often difficult to establish a cause-and-effect link between the disease and occupational exposure. The precise characterization of all these diseases requires high expertise and experience and, overall, great collaboration among specialists from various disciplines. The present winter school will provide an update on occupational diseases, taking advantage of high level speakers who will cover several crucial aspects (epidemiological, clinical, radiological, pathological and legal).
