Overview

Since 2006, the MD Anderson Proton Therapy Center in Houston has treated more than 10,000 patients with the most advanced radiation treatment available. Proton therapy has allowed MD Anderson to treat cancer with power and precision while sparing healthy tissue and reducing the risk of side effects during and following treatment. MD Anderson has published more than 570 manuscripts on proton therapy and is currently running numerous clinical trials to define the value of proton therapy. We are the first in North America to treat patients with Intensity-Modulated Proton Therapy (IMPT) and continue to pioneer in the treatment of each disease site using IMPT.

MD Anderson is well positioned to educate and expand the global knowledge in the developing field of proton therapy. As the medical industry, insurance companies and the public become more aware of the benefits of utilizing proton therapy, there remains a gap in the knowledge in this field of treatment as proton therapy expands rapidly both nationally and internationally. Proton therapy is very different from photon therapy and the goal of the MD Anderson Proton Therapy Training Program is to bridge this knowledge gap by teaching the value of proton therapy by disease site. Our Proton Therapy Training Program aims to provide the knowledge and expertise to physicians, physicists, dosimetrists, therapists and administrators who are planning to treat patients with IMPT.



Objectives
At the conclusion of this activity, learners will be able to:

  1. Incorporate the skills learned through interactive virtual sessions to better prepare for proton therapy treatments, thus improving patient outcomes
  2. Incorporate knowledge on the responsibilities of physicians, physicists, dosimetrists and therapists in the treatment of proton therapy and the importance of their roles to provide optimal patient care.Incorporate knowledge on the responsibilities of dosimetrists, physicists and nurses in the treatment of proton therapy and the importance of their roles to provide optimal patient care
  3. Apply the knowledge of treatment planning and clinical operations to perform proton therapy in respective centers/locations
  4. Gain a greater appreciation and perspective of the steps and personnel needed to perform quality proton therapy

Accreditation

In support of improving patient care, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) to provide continuing education for the healthcare team.
