    We are growing! The Division of Physics and Computing in the Department of Radiation Oncology has an immediate opening for a 5th Medical Dosimetrist. The Division currently has 4 Dosimetrists who are an integral part of our tightly-knit clinical physics and dosimetry group which consists of clinical physicists, dosimetrists, an accelerator engineer, post-docs, trainees and students. The Division provides a great environment for workload sharing and help is always available. The Medical Dosimetrist responsibilities include but are not limited to; treatment planning for routine external beam therapy ; CT-based 3D conformal therapy and IMRT ; LDR and HDR brachytherapy ; review of the patient's electronic medical record/s and routine QA activities as needed Major equipment includes : In-house developed PLanUNC treatment planning software ; Philips Brilliance Big Bore 16 CT/simulator ; Oldelft Evolution simulator with CBCT and digital imaging; Three Siemens accelerators; Nucletron HDR system; Varian prostate implant system; Mosaiq record and verify system; Mobetron intraoperative electron accelerator; and CyberKnife. Image guidance/adaptive radiotherapy is available as follows: CT on-rails unit (Siemens Emotion) is in use on our Primus accelerator; Calypso 4D localization system is in use on our Oncor accelerator; VisionRT will be available this month on our Artiste accelerator, which already has megavoltage CBCT capabilities. Qualified candidates must be Certified Medical Dosimetrists with experience in 3D conformal and IMRT treatment planning or a new graduate from a Medical Dosimetry program or B.S/B.A. in a scientific technical field with on the-the-job training in Dosimetry from a board-certified physicist or dosimetrist with at least three years of work experience as a Radiation Therapist.
