While the worst accidents can be devastating, most radiation therapy "is very good," Dr. Mettler said. "And while there are accidents, you wouldn't want to scare people to death where they don't get needed radiation therapy." Because New York State is a leader in monitoring radiotherapy ...
Specific details are given below for protection in radiation therapy, interventional procedures, and nuclear medicine. If an unintended or accidental exposure occurs, it is necessary to determine the doses involved, identify any corrective actions needed to prevent recurrence, and implement the ...
A close collaboration between the SGRT and particle therapy vendors is vital to find the best setup. Based on all this information, the project team should make a recommendation on the purchase options for the clinic’s decision makers. It should also perform a risk analysis and develop a ...
