Regional Training Course on 3D Techniques in Simulation-Treatment in Radiotherapy
Houston, Texas
3 - 8 August 2015
Purpose of the course
The purpose of this course is to provide an update to radiation therapy technologists from countries whose experience in 3D conformal radiotherapy is limited presenting an overview of the most relevant aspects for safe and effective practice. This course aims at theoretical and practical knowledge to improve the quality of rasiotherapy in the region, so that they may be able to implement this technique in their clinical practice iin an effective and safe way. This regional course seeks to strengthen the theoretical and practical concepts to improve quality of radiotherapy.- COURSE LEADERS
