RIT dosimetry software is a critical, independent QA element for implementing a successful IMRT and/or IGRT program using Film, CR, EPID, or Ion Chamber/Diode Array images. This course will train you in the basic and advanced knowledge of Quality Assurance techniques using the most current version of the RIT Family of Products, and how to comply with TG-142 Best Practice recommendations. The course will provide a level of understanding that will enable you to easily integrate the RIT system into an IMRT and/or IGRT program including using your EPID for QA. This is a hands-on course with practical exercises.
