Residency Program — Supervision

All clinical patient care activities, including those involving resident physicians, are conducted under the direct supervision and with the full participation of the attending faculty physician.

In addition, it is expected that residents will become competent in the delivery of radiation therapy for patients with benign or malignant disease, as appropriate. The program therefore includes detailed training through lectures and practical experience of radiation physics, including radiation safety. Techniques of external beam radiotherapy, as well as interstitial and intracavitary radiotherapy, are taught.
