Basic Simulation Principles for Cervical Cancer Radiotherapy

This series of microlearning videos present basic principles and practical aspects for conventional and CT simulation for cervical cancer radiotherapy. At the completion of this microlearning videos, the learner will be able to know the principles, practice, and techniques in the simulation for cervical cancer radiotherapy. The contents of these videos are intended to guide learners about the simulation in cervical cancer radiotherapy in addition to existing international, local and institutional protocols.

Level: Beginner
Duration- Microlearning videos
Language: English
Interactivity: Self-paced
Target: radiation oncologists, medical physicist, dosimetrists and radiation therapists
