This course is designed to prepare you for a career relating to clinical medical physics in the field of radiation oncology. This is a second course in radiotherapy physics and the focus will be on understanding different dose calculation algorithms in commercial treatment planning system (TPS) and the importance of proper beam modelling during the commissioning of a Linear Accelerator (LINAC) and TPS. Practical knowledge on commissioning measurement and treatment planning will also be introduced through the lab components in this course. The expertise gained in this course will present you with career opportunities in this growing and meaningful field.
