DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Dr Sarah Osman\, a radiotherapy physicist at Un
 iversity College London Hospitals and the National radiotherapy Trials QA 
 group\, will cover how ionizing radiation\, guided by advanced physics pri
 nciples\, is used to target and destroy cancer cells with high precision. 
 Attendees will gain insights into the latest advancements in imaging\, dos
 e delivery\, treatment planning\, and emerging technologies such as proton
  therapy.\nBelinda Stiles\, a nuclear medicine physicist at University Col
 lege Hospitals\, will cover how we utilise radioactive isotopes attached t
 o pharmaceuticals (radiopharmaceuticals) in medicine. This will include bo
 th their diagnostic and therapeutic uses\, and how clinical scientists sup
 port both the routine and novel uses\, including SPECT and PET imaging\, a
 s well as molecular radiotherapeutic uses and dosimetry
