Quality and Safety in Radiation Oncology is the first book to provide an authoritative and evidence-based guide to the understanding and implementation of quality and safety procedures in radiation oncology practice. Alongside the rapid growth of technology and radiotherapy treatment options for cancer in recent years, quality and safety standards are not only of the utmost importance but best practices ensuring quality and safety are crucial aspect of modern radiation oncology training. A detailed exploration and review of these standards is a necessary part of radiation oncologist’s professional competency, both in the clinical setting and at the study table while preparing for board review and MOC exams. Chapter topics range from fundamental concepts of value and quality to commissioning technology and the use of metrics. They include perspectives on quality and safety from the patient, third-party payers, as well as from the federal government. Other chapters cover prospective testing of quality, training and education, error identification and analysis, incidence reporting, as well as special technology and procedures, including MRI-guided radiation therapy, proton therapy and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), quality and safety procedures in resource-limited environments, and more. State-of-the-art quality assurance procedures and safety guidelines are the backbone of this unique and essential volume. Physicians, medical physicists, dosimetrists, radiotherapists, hospital administrators, and other healthcare professionals will find this resource an invaluable compendium of best practices in radiation oncology. Key Features: Case examples illustrate best practices and pitfalls Several dozen graphs, tables and figures help quantify the discussion of quality and safety throughout the text Section II covers all aspects of quality assurance procedures for the physicist

As the ion therapy treatment modality develops, knowledge of ion radiotherapy is growing and is being exchanged within the radiotherapy community. This community includes regulatory bodies, radiotherapy professionals, standards organizations, equipment manufacturers and suppliers. The exchange has contributed to the establishment of good practices to ensure the safety of ion therapy treatment facilities worldwide. The best international practices related to the regulatory control of radiotherapy facilities using ion accelerators have been summarized in this publication. It also provides guidance on facility authorization and inspection, as well as technical safety aspects that are typical and significant for ion accelerators. Although addressed mainly to regulatory bodies for radiation safety control, the publication can also be used by equipment vendors and organizations operating or planning to construct such facilities.
