Deskripsi
Deep inspiration breath-hold, butterfly volumetric modulated arc therapy and daily imaging techniques for mediastinal lymphoma patients have been introduced in a single department. Whilst introducing these techniques, there were many practical lessons to be learned across the patient pathway, from pre-treatment through to treatment delivery.Therapeutic radiographers were key members of the multi-disciplinary team implementing these techniques. This work reflects on the experience of introducing these advanced techniques for mediastinal lymphoma patients and the lessons learnt.
