Courses

ONCOL 306 - Imaging Principles and Analysis in Radiation Therapy

A unique application-based course exploring the use of imaging in radiation therapy. Using a variety of imaging modalities, students will develop skills in identifying pathological conditions, contouring target volumes, and performing treatment field localization. Students will analyze and interpret images to make informed radiation therapy treatment decisions.


ONCOL 355 - Treatment Planning and Dosimetry I

The foundation of radiation therapy treatment planning considering radiation dose deposition within the patient. Characteristics of radiation beams, and the intricacies of treatment calculations are applied in order to develop an appropriate treatment strategy for typical tumor locations. The course covers the use of low and high energy X-ray, electron and Cobalt60 for a variety of treatment techniques.


ONCOL 356 - Treatment Planning and Dosimetry II

Use of computerized treatment planning systems to create radiation treatment plans for the oncology patient. Topics include: 3-D conformal, 4-D planning, intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT), protons, electrons, and brachytherapy. Trends and advances impacting medical dosimetry practice will be covered.
