Successfully streamlined treatment planning for complex Head & Neck IMRT cases at Houston Methodist Hospital, reducing average plan generation time by 15% without compromising dosimetric quality or clinician satisfaction. This critical improvement was achieved by developing standardized contouring and optimization protocols within Varian Eclipse, allowing for more efficient iteration cycles. The refined process ensured robust target coverage and superior organ-at-risk sparing across a demanding patient load, significantly impacting patient throughput and timely care initiation for individuals facing aggressive cancers.
My expertise extends to a range of advanced modalities and systems crucial for precise patient care. I meticulously developed over 30 high-dose-rate brachytherapy plans monthly for gynecological and prostate cancers using BrachyVision, achieving superior dose conformity to targets while minimizing exposure to critical structures. Utilizing Pinnacle³, I engineered intricate VMAT plans for challenging thoracic cases, consistently meeting or exceeding physicians' dose objectives for PTVs and OARs, resulting in enhanced treatment efficacy. Furthermore, I optimized departmental workflow by integrating Mosaiq and ARIA systems for seamless patient data management, decreasing documentation errors by 10% annually.
The Starlight Oncology Institute's commitment to cutting-edge research, particularly in adaptive radiotherapy and personalized treatment pathways, deeply resonates with my professional aspirations.
