متن کاملRadiation Oncology Quality and Safety Considerations in Low-Resource Settings: A Medical Physics Perspective.
The past few years have seen a significant growth of interest in the global radiation therapy (RT) crisis. Various organizations have quantified the need and are providing aid in support of addressing the shortfalls existing in many low-to-middle income countries. With the tremendous demand for new facilities, equipment, and personnel, it is very important to recognize the quality and safety ch...
متن کاملThe future of Radiation Oncology: Considerations of Young Medical Doctor.
Radiation therapy plays an increasingly important role in the management of cancer. Currently, more than 50% of all cancer patients can expect to receive radiotherapy during the course of their disease, either in a primary management (radical or adjuvant radiotherapy) or for symptom control (palliative radiotherapy). Radiation oncology is a very unique branch of medicine connected with clinical...
متن کاملReimbursement versus effort in medical physics practice in radiation oncology
The changes in health care reimbursement have the potential to affect the availability of quality medical physicist service in patient care. A survey was conducted by the AAPM Professional Council and the ACMP to collect cost information for special medical physics consultation, CPT4-77370 and continuing medical physics, CPT4-77336. The data collected from the survey was compared to current rei...
