ForwardStereotactic Body Radiation Therapy Training Program (RP2110B-110321)
Overview
The primary focus of this CME course is to help oncology programs in both large and small centers, academic and community practice, learn about the proper implementation of a viable and effective SBRT treatment practice. Covered topics will include the evolution of SBRT from roots in image-guided tumors in the body, guidelines for proper treatment conduct, billing and compliance, physics and dosimetry of SBRT, clinical outcomes and treatment patterns in spine, liver, lung, GI and GU cancers, and description of various treatment platforms in clinical operation.
Target Audience
This course is designed for radiation oncologists, medical physicists, medical dosimetrists, administrators and radiation therapists interested in implementing SBRT into clinical practice.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to:
- Examine the rational and basic biology for delivering ablative doses of radiation to demarcated tumors using SBRT and image-guided techniques
- Implement on or off treatment protocol based upon mature clinical dataIdentify treatment delivery options for initiating a clinical SBRT/SAbR program at both large and small centers
- Improve hands-on skills in the identification and delivery of SBRT treatments via simulated exercises
- Explain quality assurance and regulatory compliance requirements for implementing a clinical SBRT program.
