EIP_IMRT Admin/Physics

26.5 credit CE Credits assigned by MDCB

Who Should Attend: Physicist. EIP Ops is the alternative class for Dosimetrists. ASRT and MDCB credits are available.

Prerequisites: Attendance of Eclipse Administration and Physics Course; 2-3 months routine clinical use of Eclipse recommended.

Course Scope: The course will cover inverse treatment planning with the Eclipse Inverse Planning system and the delivery of IMRT using Varian dMLC. The Varian IMRT solution will be presented during the course, including the integration into Inspiration environment. The first part of the course will cover the use of the Eclipse Inverse Planning software. The entire treatment planning process is covered and demonstrated on typical clinical cases. Topics covered in this part are inverse planning algorithms, interfacing with other devices, definition of optimization parameters, QA procedures, and system commissioning. Part of the training course is reserved for hands- on training and covers typical clinical cases. An invited guest speaker will give a presentation on the use of Eclipse Inverse Planning in the clinical environment and share his or her clinical experience. The second part of the course covers delivery methods. Among covered topics are: a detailed description of the MLC hardware, the MLC and Clinac control systems for dynamic dose delivery, dMLC QA issues, and patient related QA procedures.
