    • Webinar #1 | AAPM Webinar Series on Spatially Fractionated Radiation Therapy (SFRT): Clinical Significance, Technical Approaches and Challenges
      Overview – A different path to reach high treatment therapeutic ratio
      SFRT is an unconventional form of radiation therapy that has recaptured the attention of the field in recent years. Mounting evidence from clinical application and preclinical research has shown that SFRT is unequivocally different from conventional radiation therapy and has the potential of very high therapeutic ratio. Despite of its potential, especially for patients whose cancers cannot be effectively controlled by conventional therapies, SFRT remains largely unused. This webinar series is intended to be a comprehensive overview of SFRT – the history, current status, the potentials, and the challenges.
      Speakers: Majid Mohiuddin, Hualin Zhang, Xiaodong Wu, Sha Chang | Moderator: Sha Chang

Corgi Phantom:
The Corgi Phantom is designed to evaluate cone beam CT systems. The modular phantom can be configured for different scan sizes, providing tests for multi-axis high resolution, sensitometry, cone beam artifacts, and uniformity. Additionally, the phantom includes holes for measuring dose.

Liver Phantom:
The Liver Phantom combines the advantages of objective test objects and anthropomorphic elements for evaluation of advanced iterative processing. The phantom includes low contrast test objects designed both for ROC tests along with conventional patterns, metal artifact inserts, and beads for MTF calculations.
