Electronic Portal Image Device Dosimetry for Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy

open access: yesJapanese Journal of Radiological Technology, 2013
Recently electronic portal image devices (EPIDs) have been widely used for quality assurance and dose verification. However there are no reports describing EPID dosimetry for Elekta volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT). We have investigated EPID dosimetry during VMAT delivery using a commercial software EPIDose with an Elekta Synergy linac.

Game‐based learning for undergraduate consolidation: A qualitative study of how game‐based learning provides much more than knowledge acquisition

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Game‐based learning (GBL) is increasingly used in medical education to supplement traditional didactic learning methods. Adult learners in particular may benefit from GBL, given the autonomous and iterative nature of a well‐designed educational game.
