IGART 2027 Registration coming soon

Course overview

This course is designed to help clinicians, physicists and radiographers to develop comprehensive programmes for the clinical implementation of image guided radiotherapy. The course has been awarded 19 RCR Category I CPD credits under The Royal College of Radiologists CPD scheme.

The curriculum covers many practical aspects and includes hands-on practical sessions, image matching, QA and dosimetry. It is recommended that a team of oncologist, physicist and radiographer from the same centre attend together.

The course is for two days and included in the cost are a set of lecture notes, a digital copy of the actual presentations, lunches, refreshments in the day, and a course meal.

Day one: Lectures on patient preparation and immobilisation, surface guided RT, New technology; Radixact, HyperSight, Elekta solutions, Imaging and margins in head and neck cancers, margins for geometric uncertainty, adaptive pathways.

Practical hands-on sessions on the use of Image Guidance protocols, QA, Dosimetry, and a journey through the patient pathway. These sessions will be scheduled in the evening on Day one.

Day two: Lectures on advanced techniques for gynaecological cancer, AI in clinical pathway, Renal Cancer SBRT, SBRT for lung including 4D motion management, Verification for lung tumours, current prostate trials, adaptive radiotherapy for bladder cancer.
