“Off of My Napkin and Into the Computer”: Enhancing Re-Irradiation With Dora From KSA and Ana From Radformation
Apr 30, 2024 Season 3 Episode 17

The Accelerators (Drs. Matt Spraker and Simul Parikh) team up with Radformation for a very special #ESTRO24 episode!

We host Dr. Dora Correia, a Portuguese Radiation Oncologist currently working at Cantonal Hospital Aarau in Switzerland and EORTC Y-ECI ROSC Chair as well as Ana Rato, Medical Dosimetrist and Clinical Success Manager with Radformation.

In honor of ESTRO 2024, we discuss a hot topic for the conference... reirradiation!

We first compare and contrast patterns of referral and practice in Switzerland versus the US then give our thoughts on the ESTRO Challenges in Reirradiation: From Art to Science webinar series. This is free and not to be missed!

We then discuss how we manage re-irradiation in our day to day clinical job... and how Radformation ClearCheck, AutoContour, and deformable registration can enhance our re-irradiation workflows! 

Finally, we discuss how to approach treatment intent with patients when they may be facing a high risk of serious toxicity.

We close the show with Simul's Portuguese Lightning Round! 

We hope you enjoy ESTRO 2024, check out Radformation at booth 550!

Here are some other things we discussed during the episode:
