LEARNING OBJECTIVES

1) Contour Post-operative pelvis :Nodal CTV and Vaginal ITV. 2) Contour an intact cervical case. 3)Contour the GTV and HR CTV at the time of cervical brachytherapy.

ABSTRACT

 Proper contouring of radiation targets and organs at risk is essential in developing treatment plans which maximize the benefits and minimize the risks of radiation, both for external beam and brachytherapy. This course will focus on contouring the nodal CTV and vaginal ITV for a post-op endometrial cancer patient as well as the non-nodal CTV and nodal CTV for an intact cervix patient as well as the GTV and HR CTV for a patient at the time of cervical  brachytherapy.
