Meet Daisy-Mai – An Orlando Health Pet Therapy Dog

Our journey began the day she climbed into my sister-in-law, Nicole’s, lap and cuddled up into a fluffy ball, begging to be pet and loved.

Resident Responsibilities
During the first year, the physics resident attends didactic lectures, conferences, and participates directly in the clinic through a series of structured rotations. The resident works closely with staff physicists and dosimetrists to observe and participate in conventional and IMRT treatment planning, image acquisition, on-board imaging, fusion, registration, dose calculations, design and fabrication of patient treatment aids, treatment machine calibrations, patient and phantom dose measurements, quality assurance procedures, brachytherapy procedures, and other physical and technical tasks performed in the clinic. They will also be responsible for several clinical projects and reports to help strengthen their understanding of the clinic. During this time, the resident should develop basic radiation oncology physics skills and also should develop an overall understanding of the radiation oncology physicist’s and dosimetrist’s role in the clinic.
