Overview
Course Program
The carefully crafted curriculum offers an optimal blend of theoretical knowledge and hands‑on practice. In the mornings, participants study rhinological fundamentals prior to the coffee break, followed by sessions on surgical techniques and pathology leading up to lunch. Each of the three afternoons is dedicated to image‑guided dissection of fresh‑frozen cadaveric heads, with expert instructors conducting a pre-dissection demonstration at a master station.
