A little Red Journal humor to start your Friday #medphys #radonc

[IJROBP - The Red Journal @IJROBP]

I love data yum yum yum
but not too big data because that freaks people out and makes everyone upset
maybe if I hide it all in my appendices no one will see

[Christopher Tien @TienAtYale]

We studied dose–volume characteristics in Gamma Knife radiosurgery plans which we believe may be associated with higher tumor control probability. Results now e-published ahead of print. https://t.co/79SLpiaDAx

We got a provisional patent in 2019 for a gynecological radiation therapy treatment device. Here's our peer-reviewed first publication on it https://t.co/aBmsTbNIjW

[Christopher Tien @TienAtYale]

Figured out a new methodology to administer skin radiation therapy using an existing device. https://t.co/QZOLlb1C04
