Improve your accuracy in radiotherapy


The SoR has joined with the Royal College of Radiologists (RCR) to issue new guidance on radiotherapy treatment verification.

On target: ensuring geometric accuracy in radiotherapy provides guidance on how to improve the accuracy of radiotherapy. It explains the significance of the systematic and random errors present in even the best-run departments and lays out methodologies for measuring and minimising such errors.

The document describes and recommends the best evidence-based practices for geometric treatment verification. It also provides guidelines as to how individual centres may implement geometric verification processes locally.
