Purpose:
Two days teaching course in Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) will provide attendees with practical insight in IMRT. The course will cover the many aspects of IMRT, with an emphasis on hands-on experience with all aspects of practical IMRT. Attendees will have an opportunity to plan, deliver, make equipment quality assurance measurements, and patient specific verification measurements and analysis.

Course Format:
This course offers lectures by our experienced faculty members concentrating on the practical aspects of the IMRT implementation and delivery.  Participants will have ample opportunity apply planning principles to actual delivery and measurement on our equipment.  Due to the interactive nature of this program, the number of attendees is limited to a maximum of 6 people. Every effort possible will be made to accommodate individuals with special physical needs.
