Description

In our country there are standards and audits for conventional radiotherapy 2D and 3D. However, there are no audits for modern radiotherapy techniques such as stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRS) and, in general, for all techniques which has dynamic high-rate braiding. The main goal of this proposal is developing an audit program for SRS having as a benchmark the methodology given in the National ¿End-to-End¿ Audit Programme for Dose Delivery Using Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) through On-Site Visits to Radiation Therapy Institutions. If there is enough time we expect to introduce our contributions into the Quality Assurance Team for Radiation Oncology (QUATRO) program, which does not contains audits procedure for such a tecnique such as SRS..
