We're going to visit the Erasmus Medical Centre. In particular the research program ‘Radiation oncology, medical physics and imaging' which has its main focus on technical development of external beam radiotherapy and brachytherapy. The investigations reach from development of algorithms for beam orientation optimization to evaluations of the Quality of Life for new treatment techniques. Image-guided therapy (IGRT) is essential to many of the projects.
