Our work |
|
The Radiotherapy Physics Department provides a routine service to Weston Park Hospital in aspects of treatment planning, radiation dosimetry, quality assurance, patient immobilisation, equipment maintenance and teaching. In addition we pursue a number of research projects concerning these subject areas. Below is an example of three such areas: |
|
Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) |
|
CT Virtual Simulation (CTSIM) |
|
Interactive Radiotherapy Planning for Students (IRPS) |
|
IMRT vs 3DCRT plans of the parotid using Cadplan/Helios Inverse Planning System |
|
CT Virtual Simulator (Marconi Acqsim): Bronchus Study, Contrast Study and Optimisation Study. |
|
IRPS - a planning program that assists students to learn the skills of radiotherapy treatment planning under supervision. |
