Mashup Score: 3Highlights of the 65th Annual Meeting of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine - 28 day(s) ago
The 65th annual meeting of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine took place in July 2023 with a theme of “The Art of Science, The Science of Care.” We review a sample of the more than 1000 talks and 1600 posters, focusing on a few topics of interest. Recent legislative changes across the country regarding reproductive health care have led to questions about how these regulations may affect your practice. A fantastic multidisciplinary session addressed these issues with experts in the areas of legal, administration, physics, and medicine.

Mashup Score: 2Implementation of a Stereoscopic Camera System for Clinical Electron Simulation and Treatment Planning - 2 month(s) ago
A 3-dimensinal (3D) stereoscopic camera system developed by .decimal was commissioned and implemented into the clinic to improve the efficiency of clinical electron simulations. Capabilities of the camera allowed simulations to be moved from the treatment vault into any room with a flat surface that could accommodate patient positioning devices, eliminating the need for clinical patient setup timeslots on the treatment machine. This work describes the process used for these simulations and compares the treatment parameters determined by the system to those used in delivery.
