Five Things About My Job, Lead Medical Dosimetrist

  1. I design treatment plans for radiation oncology treatments.
  2. I work very closely with the Radiation Oncologist to ensure that the patient receives a homogeneous dose and that we do not harm the patient by overdosing critical structures such as the spinal cord.
  3. I monitor the workflow within the dosimetry department.
  4. I assist in implementing new treatment planning techniques such as prone breast treatment and volumetric modulated arc therapy.
  5. I assist in implementing and updating policies within the whole of Radiation Oncology.

Two Things About Me, Candy Zanelli
