CT Essentials for Medical Physicists: From CT Simulation to Treatment

This course integrates essential knowledge of CT (Computed Tomography) physics, covering key components such as hardware, direct density measurement, dual-energy techniques, and quality assurance protocols. Focusing specifically on the medical physicist's responsibilities, it outlines the comprehensive end-to-end clinical workflow from scanning patients in CT Sim for their radiation treatment. By mastering these fundamentals, medical physicists can enhance diagnostic accuracy, optimize treatment plans, and ensure the safety and efficacy of CT imaging practices in radiation therapy. PREREQUISITES: Customers must have SOMATOM go. Platform and or CT Simulator.
