  1. TS7a Radiation protection in radiotherapy Posters Michel Bourguignon, MD, PhD Rapporteur

  2. A patchwork of posters 2 domains of interest : • Dosimetry • Radiation safety + Comparison of CT imaging protocols for diagnostic / RTH applications (Khan, UK)

  3. Dosimetry (1) • Monte Carlo • Out of field doses in C ion therapy (Yonai, Japan) • Doses from photoneutrons in head phantoms (Juste, Spain) • Accuracy of treatment planning systems in different configurations (Caccia, Italy) 2. TPS • Dose Calculation accuracy of different TPS (Golrokh-Nodahi, Iran)

  4. Dosimetry (2) 3. Peripheral dose • Peripheral dosimetry in humanoid phantoms (children, pregnant women) (Sobol, Brazil) • Peripheral doses in Tomotherapy < Rapid Arc (3-12%) (Duchateau, Belgium) • Out of field doses in C ion therapy (Yonai, Japan)

  5. Dosimetry (3) 4. Miscellaneous • Gonad shielding : reduction dose 30% (Kim HY, Korea) • Coronary dosimetry with hybrid computational phantom (CT + heart model) (Moignier, France) • Partial breast irradiation (8 sections): search for optimal treatment (Kim MJ, Korea) • Verification of accuracy of dose in megavoltage cone beam CT (Kim MJ, Korea)

  6. Radiation safety (1) 1. Failure mode and effects analysis FMEA • Fuzzy logic techniques to complement FMEA overdose exposure accidents in brachytherapy (Castiglia, Italy) • FMEA in developing a quality management program in proton therapy (Cantone, Italy)

  7. Radiation safety (2) 2. Miscellaneous • Design of RS system for protons and heavy ions RTH (Xia X, China) • Evaluation of RS reports for brachytherapy equipments (Keum, Korea) • 2 Guides on risk self assessment & RTH safety and quality management (Franchi, France) • Lesson learned from significant events in RTH : communication scale (Rousse, France)

  8. Radiation safety (3) 2. Miscellaneous (ctd) • X ray safe system using UV laser for breast cancer post operative irradiation (Minami, Japan) • Report on the upgrading QA/QC program in RTH in Croatia (IAEA project) (Jurkoviae, Croatia) • Minimization of exposure of RTH operators of Co-60 (Sabol, Czech Republic)
