Session

Overview: Delivering radiation therapy treatment to a high standard is dependent on patient immobilisation and treatment verification. This in turn is dependent on high quality patient positioning and a suitable treatment environment. In this symposium, we will explore key factors and considerations in patient immobilisation and verification, with specific focus on challenges relating to breast treatment and the impact of sharing knowledge and ideas, considerations in the use of particle therapy for treatments such as cranio-spinal, head and neck and prostate, with additional consideration of the impacts of the ambient environment of the treatment room, such as music and lighting.
