Author/Creator
Hopkins, Melissa G.;  Callan, Scott A.;  Cant, Jennifer G.;  Dempsey, Shane E.
Description
Radiation therapy (RT) technologies and the technical skills required have undergone an extended period of change and advancement. The University of Newcastle's RT curriculum has met this challenge by developing a technologically layered curriculum that not only retains the basic fundamental concepts underpinning RT, but also reflects current and emerging technology, as well as the associated s.kill developments. This paper outlines how past, current and future RT technical approaches and technical skills are integrated into the current undergraduate RT curriculum.
