EDU 56 - Perspectives from a Physicist, Biologist and Clinician: Unrealized Opportunities in Spatially Fractionated Radiotherapy

A Physicists Perspective on SFRT

Tuesday, October 1, 2024
5:17 PM – 5:29 PM ET
Location: Room 145

Learning Objectives:

  1. Understand the differences between types of SFRT (grid, lattice, minibeam, microbeam) and how emerging technologies like FLASH and proton can be used with SFRT.
  2. Understand how SFRT can impact the tumor microenvironment and/or how we might rationally combine novel therapies with SFRT.
  3. Understand what are the clinical applications for SFRT and the clinical literature surrounding its use for management in palliation and re-irradiation; potential trial opportunities.
