Training and Workshops

Why do you need assistance beyond vendor training?

To achieve the benefits of advanced radiotherapy, updated technology must be acquired for linear accelerators, imaging, treatment planning and quality assurance. New technology represents significant learning curves for physicians, physicists, dosimetrists and therapists in order to utilize it optimally in a clinical environment.

Clinicians face many challenges with new technology:
Understanding the integration of new technology Overcoming the learning curve associated with utilizing the new technology for imaging, positioning, prescribing, contouring, planning, verification and treatment Integrating advanced clinical practice efficiently into workflow

While vendor training and consultation focuses on the operation of technology, D3 focuses on assisting clinicians with the optimal clinical application to improve quality and efficiency of workflow.
