Course on the basis of sbrt for physicists

Acquisizione competenze tecnico-professionali:Modern radiotherapy is experiencing a paradigm shift characterized by the progressive reduction in the number of fractions. stereotactic body radiotherapy (sbrt), also designed as sabr (stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy), is a radiation therapy approach in which high radiation doses are delivered in few fractions focused on small extracranial tumors with rapid dose fall off outside the target. In particular, sbrt/sabr is becoming elective therapy in several anatomic districts, both for primitive tumors and for metastatic lesions. Technological progress both in imaging and in treatment delivery has favored the adoption of this technique. the main aim of this three-day course is to assist medical physicists working in both large and small centers, to learn the proper implementation of effective sbrt treatment practice.
