Teaching Lecture E-LEARNING FOR PROFESSIONALS IN RADIATION ONCOLOGY: WHAT, WHY AND HOW? 08:00 - 08:40 | MADRID Chair: C. Belka (Germany) 08:00 > e-Learning for Professionals in Radiation Oncology: What, Why and How? Speaker: A. Berlanga Flores (The Netherlands) Symposium with Proffered Papers QUALITY BEYOND ACCURACY: ARE WE FAILING TO SEE THE FOREST FOR THE TREES? 08:45 - 10:00 | ROOM 2 The rapid technological advances in radiotherapy have led to an increased focus on accuracy, often, but not always, as a tool to obtain quality. In this symposium, Neil Burnet will review the clinical impact (or lack thereof) of increased accuracy in treatment delivery. Severine Cucchiaro will try to answer a key question: what is quality from the patients’ perspective? What are their needs and expectations? Finally, Håkan Nystrom will discuss the role of the medical physicist in finding the optimal balance between safety and quality, within a multidisciplinary strategy. 08:45 > Has higher accuracy in treatment delivery translated into noticeable improvements in clinical outcomes? Speaker: N. Burnet (UK) 09:05 > The patient: an active partner in quality and safety process in radiothe- rapy Speaker: S. Cucchiaro (Belgium) 09:25 > Beyond accuracy: how can medical physics help improve treatment quality? Speaker: H. Nyström (Sweden) 09:45 > Evaluation of models for plan QA using fully automated Pareto-optimal plans for prostate patients Y. Wang (The Netherlands), S. Breedveld, B. Heijmen, S.F. Petit Chair: M.
