This subject will introduce radiation therapy students to theoretical and practical applications of treatment planning. Students explore therapeutic dose behaviours in tissue using manual calculation methods, the role of immobilisation at simulation to optimise treatment planning, 3D planning system contouring, controls and 3D conformal radiation therapy planning.
