SYMPOSIUM Real time navigation technologies in brachytherapy 14:30 - 15:45 | Brown 2

During this symposium the speakers will describe future technologies for brachytherapy such as real time navigation in gynaecologic brachytherapy with technical description even for difficult patients (tumour extending lateral to the pelvic or far from the vaginal surface and phantom example, 3D printed templates for steering of needles with workflow description, examples and clinical results and finally multi-modality image registration both rigid and deformable, methods for estimating therapy delivery accuracy but also impact of machine learning in this area.

SYMPOSIUM Automatic / Knowledge based treatment planning:open issues 14:30 - 15:45 | Space 1-2

Automated and knowledge-based treatment planning has gained significant attention in the literature and there is increasing clinical uptake as commercial manufacturers offer some form of solution. While developments have occurred, there are still open areas of research and issues to be addressed. This session will explore some of these areas, addressing the following questions: how can we get the best out of knowledge-based planning?What rolewill automation play in personalised radiotherapy and what are the potential limitations? How can automated planning improve quality in clinical trials? How can automated planning play a role in bias-free plan comparisons?

Chair: M. Hussein (United Kingdom) Co-chair: C. Masciocchi (Italy)
