Symposium
THE FUTURE OF QA LIES IN AUTOMATION
09:15 - 10:30 | ROOM 500
This symposium will focus on the challenges and approaches in automating quality assurance tasks
in the radiotherapy work flow. Specifically we will focus on automation of QA for individual patients
in treatment plans and in delivery using log files and in-vivo dosimetry. We will review the different
methods for state of the art approaches and ask ’What are the limits of automation and can automated
processes ever be used in decision making?’
