Yesterday our previous Head of RTPhysics @lizcrees left BHRUT EP Team for pastures new - thanks Liz for everything you've done in our department and beyond. As a parting gift she gave us cake forks, adding further sophistication to a department already very keen on its cakes!

At the Varian International Oncology Summit in Vienna pre ESTRO, our BHR_Radiotherapy Head of Radiotherapy, Siobhan Graham Siobhan Graham is on a panel discussing "Transforming Oncology Care with Digital Solutions"

Speaking again in Vienna, now at #ESTRO23, Siobhan Graham Siobhan Graham our Head of Radiotherapy BHR_Radiotherapy talks about how radiographers, dosimetrists & physicists in our department are credentialed to do Ethos online adaptive treatments with no doctor present

Physicist Ahmed Ifthaker, formerly of our department but now at Bart's, Barts_Radiotherapy, at #ESTRO23 next to the poster he co-authored whilst he was with us - Validation of local tolerances for Halcyon pre-treatment plan verification using a Sun Nuclear PerFRACTION

Also at #ESTRO23 today - poster-discussion presented by Head of RT Physics Dom Withers Dom Withers : "Use of RapidPlan knowledge-based planning models for planning of rectum cases with Ethos TPS"

Well-deserved recognition of our colleagues in Oncology BHRUT NHS 🏥 using technology for patient benefit

The Radiotherapy Physics stall at BHRUT NHS 🏥 "NHS 75 Expo Past, Present and Future": some old dosimetrey equipment, pieces of linacs, patient immobilisation devices, and pictures & diagrams describing radiotherapy since 1896. The patient masks got the most attention! #nhs75

Look at the size of that panel! Very excited to have UK's first Varian HyperSight imaging system on our Ethos linac. CBCTs in 6 secs, improved reconstruction algorithms reducing artefacts, lower dose to patients. More details in images' ALT text. BHR_Radiotherapy BHR_Radiotherapy

29°C in Romford today! Fortunately there is an ice cream van just outside the hospital entrance🤔so all four of our radiotherapy physics MPEs popped out for a treat 🍦😎 (don't worry - still on-site, DECT phone within range...)

Queen’s is the first hospital in the UK to receive the Varian HyperSight imaging system upgrade to our Ethos radiotherapy machine. It can take detailed images in just six seconds, compared to 43 seconds using the previous equipment. Find out more: bhrhospitals.nhs.uk/news/queens-ho…

Starting at 4pm UK time: not too late to register for a Varian webinar where department head Dom Withers Dom Withers talks about treating breasts on Halcyon, and Halcyon versatility. If you miss it - should be available on myvarian in two weeks' time. myvarian.com/s/mvwebsummary…

A very happy 6th birthday to the first Halcyon in the world to have kV-CBCT imaging. Still going strong as it marches into linac middle-age, and soon to be doing surface-guided treatments with Identify BHR_Radiotherapy BHRUT NHS 🏥 Varian @varianuk

Colleagues from Oncology and Radiotherapy BHR_Radiotherapy and from our department have had a case study published in Cureus, about CBCT-based oART using Varian Ethos Therapy for an oesophagus patient after gastric pull-up See full paper here: cureus.com/articles/28151…

Today is Global Clinical Engineering Day #GlobalCEDay This is Nick Norris, our Chief Radiotherapy Engineer responsible for maintenance of our CT scanner, 3 linacs, and associated equipment & accessories. Thanks to Nick & all CEs who keep our healthcare equipment safe & effective.

Doctors, therapeutic radiographers and a radiotherapy physicist from BHRUT NHS 🏥 Team Radiation Oncology are enjoying the UK SABR meeting in Edinburgh. Picture is our poster on lowering conformity index target values for lung SABR BHR_Radiotherapy BHR RT Physics #UKSABR24

I've done a blog post for the charity RadiotherapyUK, reflecting on 25 years in radiotherapy radiotherapy.org.uk/radiotherapy-p…

We are hiring - looking for a proactive and curiosity-driven clinical scientist to join our team as Principal Physicist (8b) in charge of QA & Dosimetry. More details on the Trust vacancies website at bhrhospitals.nhs.uk/current-vacanc… Do get in touch if you're interested!
