This webinar will aim to cover a general introduction into radiotherapy quality assurance with an interest in small-field quality assurance and its impact on patient care.
Stereotactic radiation therapy is fast becoming standard of care, and a powerful tool towards patient treatment and palliation. The correct implementation of small-field dosimetry and its impact to precise delivery of radiation treatments will be explored, highlighting the considerations required during acceptance and commissioning of radiotherapy systems.
During the webinar, we’ll attempt to understand the complexities and the effort in addressing the challenges posed by the small size of stereotactic treatment fields, including strategies employed within our institution and in current literature.
Details regarding currently available devices for quality assurance will be presented, as well as an overview of current efforts in the medical physics community to improve the accuracy and reliability of radiotherapy treatments.
We’ll also look to discuss the challenges and developments in small-field radiotherapy QA and look to gain an understanding of the evolving landscape in this field.
