Key diff in my mind is that in E2E testing we can identify a point on MRI, register to CT and than use IGRT to find point with 3D error < 1 mm. However, could we do that with an RO contoured volume in a patient dataset … prob not. Does it seem to matter? …Also prob not

A 🧵explaining the rationale for my doubts 1/n

In settings where MRI availability is low, this would be a game changer

Today is World Radiotherapy Awareness Day 🌍✨ I am grateful to work as a medical physicist in radiation oncology — a field where science, technology, and compassion come together to help people with cancer. #WorldRadiotherapyAwarenessDay #MedicalPhysics

Now I feel vindicated for my feelings towards these subjects as an undergrad

I am rethinking how I begin future textbook chapters and conversations in general. Directness is the way.

Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine. If you think the world doesn’t need Basic Science, or that somehow Science has failed you, think again.

Thinking back to this tweet as we are now well on the way to offering same day sim to treatment for multi-met SRS cases in our department.. watch this space!

I think linac based SRS is not far from reaching the efficiency that we see with GK. Planning much faster these days through HyperArc or similar, physics QA becoming more efficient, synthetic CT creation from MRI….
