SYMPOSIUM From grid therapy to microbeam radiotherapy 14:30 - 15:45 | Space 3-4

Invitedspeakerswillcoverthechallengesofdifferentclinicalimplementations of spatially fractionated radiation therapy (SFRT). Dr Schültke will address the origins of GRID therapy and discuss the use of synchrotron-generated x-ray microbeam (MRT) in SFRT. Dr Prezado will instead discuss the use of charged particles in minibeam (MBRT) and its potential advantage over MRT. Dr Lye will talk about the absolute dosimetry challenges in a synchrotron beam focusing on reference dosimetry in MRT and the choice of appropriate detectors. Finally, Dr Bartzsch will discuss the use of compact sources as well as the challenges of treatment planning in MRT. 14:30 > Introduction to microbeam radiation therapy: radiosurgical grid therapy at the microscopic scale Speaker: E. Schültke (Germany) 14:48 > Spatial fractionation of the dose: from photons to charged particles Speaker: Y. Prezado (France) 15:06 > Dosimetry measurement in microbeam therapy Speaker: J. Lye (Australia), P. Harty, D. Butler 15:24 > Compact microbeam sources and microbeam treatment planning Speaker: S. Bartzsch (United Kingdom) Chair: J. Cashmore (United Kingdom) Co-chair: M.

SYMPOSIUM Focus on the lung 14:30 - 15:45 | Ambra 1-2

In this session adaptive radiotherapy in the treatment of lung cancer patients will be discussed. The session will start with a clinical overview of implementing image-guided adaptive radiotherapy in the treatment of lung cancer patients. With focus on the dosimetric and clinical outcome. After that practical guidelines will be highlighted how to evaluate the CBCT images and adapt the treatment plans following a specific workflow. The third speaker will weigh the benefits of IGRT and DIBH for motion management, compared to its limitations and evaluate on the feasibility of clinical implementation.
