Outcome and dosimetric analysis of patients undergoing brain stereotactic radiosurgery

Project Description

With better imaging and treatments, patients with cancer are surviving longer meaning that some patients will receive multiple treatments. This project will investigate correlations between patient outcomes and the details of the radiation treatment statistics. The project will involve collecting various radiation dosimetric data and subsequent analysis. The one researcher will work closely with the PI with the data extraction, analysis; and the PI will provide reading material, lectures, etc. on the project and the field of radiation oncology, in general.
