Abstract:
On-treatment imaging in radiotherapy has evolved over the last 60 years, bringing with it changes in the roles of radiographers, radiologists and oncologists. The ability to acquire and interpret high quality images (2D kilovoltage and megavoltage imaging and 3D CT and cone-beam CT) for radiotherapy planning and delivery requires therapy radiographers to have skills and knowledge that overlap with those of diagnostic radiographers. With the implementation of MRI-guided radiotherapy, treatment radiographers and clinical oncologists are exploring new territory, requiring truly collaborative working practices with their radiology partners. This short communication introduces the first images acquired using the hybrid MR Linac at our institution.

Attenuation
When constant series resistance and shunt conductance are present, voltage and current equations are modified. The propagation constant indicates that voltage and current waves consist of both forward and backward traveling components. These waves attenuate as they propagate, with the attenuation factor related to the resistance and conductance. In a...

Properties of Electric Field Lines
For one, the electric field of a positive charge must originate from it. That is because its electric field points away from it. Moreover, since the magnitude of the field asymptotes to zero at infinity, the...
