I have started a new position as the Vice Chair of Medical Physics, Radiation Oncology, at Tampa General Hospital. I look forward to working with everyone to build a cohesive team dedicated to patient care and committed to education and innovation for the future of radiotherapy.
First patient treated on our adaptive proton trial today❗ Thank you to this patient and Drs. Zhang, Liu, Zhao, Kim, Perkins and the rest of the adaptive radiation team @WashURadOnc for making this happen! @SitemanCenter#adaptiveRT#radonc
No surprise this article clinched the top spot as the most cited paper in @IJROBP of 2022🥇! It's both highly educational and a joy to read. 🤓📖 I strongly recommend everyone, especially trainees, in the #RadOnc community to give it a go! @UTSW_RadOnc

Simulation free radiotherapy (SF-RT) is an emerging treatment paradigm for patients requiring palliative radiotherapy. In this matched cohort study, SF-RT improved time to plan generation compared to CT-simulated radiotherapy. @JoshuaSchiffMD @WashURadOnc https://t.co/1LLjXBvaPn
