PERSPECTIVE ON NEW TECHNOLOGIES, 

CLINICAL FINDINGS AND SAFETY 

OVERVIEW 

Focusing on two of the most common 

cancer sites treated in Radiation Oncology, 

prostate and breast, this course will look at 

new technologies (robotics, imaging, and 

new delivery devices), discuss the latest 

clinical ndings, shed light on the current 

controversies, and review safety with a 

modern <strong>perspective</strong>. 

TARGET AUDIENCE 

The course is intended for a national 

audience of Radiation Oncologists and 

Medical Physicists actively involved in the 

clinical activities or the decision making 

process of using radiation for cancer 

treatment. 

EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES 

At the end of this activity, attendees should be 

able to: 

Understand and describe the role, promises 

and pitfalls of robotics and robots in radiation 

therapy; 

Identify the changes in anatomy/shape and 

how to image them; 

Discern evidence for and against new and 

emerging technologies for accelerated partial 

breast irradiation (APBI); 

Determine the best form(s) of monotherapy for 

low risk prostate cancer; 

Understand and demonstrate how to put 

safety rst.
