An IAEA survey of radiotherapy practice including quality assurance extent and depth

Dosimetric Study of an Indigenous and Heterogeneous Pelvic Phantom for Radiotherapy Quality Assurance

Introduction: In vitro dosimetric verification prior to patient treatment plays a key role in accurate and precision radiotherapy treatment delivery. Since the human body is a heterogeneous medium, the aim of this study was to design a heterogeneous pelvic phantom for radiotherapy quality assurance. Material and Methods: A pelvic phantom was ...

Quality Assurance and Good Manufacturing Practice in Respect of Plasma Fractionation

Quality Assurance of External Beam Radiotherapy

'Quality assurance' is all those planned and systematic actions necessary to provide adequate confidence that a product or service will satisfy the given requirements for quality (ISO 9000:1994). As such it is wide ranging, covering all relevant procedures, activities and actions, and hence all groups of staff involved in the process under consideration. 12.1.1.2. Quality assurance in radiother...

an investigation of the impact of self monitoring on langauge teachers motivational practice and its effect on learners motivation

the central purpose of this study was to conduct a case study about the role of self monitoring in teacher’s use of motivational strategies. furthermore it focused on how these strategies affected students’ motivational behavior. although many studies have been done to investigate teachers’ motivational strategies use (cheng & d?rnyei, 2007; d?rnyei & csizer, 1998; green, 2001, guilloteaux & d?...

Quality assurance devices for dynamic conformal radiotherapy

Two quality control devices, light-field device and radiation-field device, have been specially designed to facilitate the clinical implementation of conformal dynamic arc treatment (CDAT) and intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). With the devices, the light field as well as the radiation field, projected from the individual beam at any treatment position (i.e. arbitrary gantry angle) c...
