TTD
The kidney has a TTD of?
2300
This imaging technique provides 3D volumetric images of the patient while they are on the treatment table, allowing for precise verification of internal anatomy before delivering radiation.
Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT)
This is the most common early skin reaction to radiation, appearing as redness or irritation in the treatment area.
erythema
This term describes beams that are directed from opposite sides of the body.
parallel opposed fields
In radiation oncology, it is legally required to use____ patient-specific identifiers to verify a patient's identity before administering any treatment or procedure. This standard is mandated by The Joint Commission and is widely adopted across healthcare settings to ensure patient safety.
2
A TTD of 6500 belongs to which organ?
Bladder
This high-dose radiation technique is used to treat small, well-defined tumors in the body, often in 1–5 fractions.
SBRT
This more severe skin reaction involves the breakdown of the skin with weeping or oozing, typically occurring in high-dose regions.
Moist Desquamation
A wedge filter is used to do this to the radiation dose distribution.
What is shape or modify the dose
This component shapes the radiation beam and is located inside the gantry head.
collimator
A TTD of 5500 belongs to which part of the body?
Skin
Esophagus
Liver
This high-precision treatment is typically used to treat brain lesions in a single session.
SRS
In topographical anatomy, the term “inferior” means towards what?
Towards feet
This material is placed on the patient’s skin to bring the radiation dose closer to the surface.
Bolus
Before delivering radiation, these two communication systems must be checked to ensure the therapist can monitor and communicate with the patient throughout treatment.
audio and visual system
A TTD of 4500 belongs to which organ?
Brain
Retina
Larynx
Colon
SBRT requires this advanced motion management technique when treating tumors in areas like the lungs or liver.
Respiratory gating or motion tracking
In topographical anatomy, the terms “contralateral" means
On the opposite side of the body.
This invisible point in space represents the intersection of the beams and is the central reference for treatment delivery.
Isocenter
ODI stands for...
optical distance indicator
The spinal cord (20cm) has a TTD of what?
4700
This term refers to dividing the total prescribed radiation dose into multiple smaller doses delivered over several sessions.
Fractionation
In topographical anatomy, the term “ipsilateral” means
SAME SIDE OF THE BODY
These are the three main components of a linear accelerator that work together to generate, shape, and deliver radiation to the patient.
Drive stand, gantry, PSA
This type of imaging pair is taken at 90-degree angles to each other to help localize the treatment isocenter in three dimensions. light projected from collimator to represent the radiation field is...
orthogonal pair
