Flexibility and efficiency in modern SRS workflows – Physics World

Join Lucy Winch and Christopher Herbert for an informative webinar focusing on the experience of upgrading from Leksell Gamma Knife Icon to Elekta Esprit. Find out how Leksell GammaPlan 11.4 including Lightning and the latest Vantage headframe is helping to expand access to radiosurgery.

Learn how these advancements not only enhance efficiency but also offer advanced immobilization and workflow options, benefiting both practitioners and patients.

Lucy Winch is currently the head of dosimetry development at Bristol Oncology Centre, a leading centre in the UK. She has worked in radiotherapy physics since 2000 and has 20 years’ experience in external beam stereotactic radiotherapy, including linac-based and 10 years in Gamma Knife Perfexion, Icon and now Esprit models. Lucy and the Gamma Knife team have given many national and international talks on GK. She is currently editor of the GK chapter of the Institute of Physics in Medicine Acceptance Testing and Commissioning of Linear Accelerators and has contributed to a previous Elekta webinar on the topic of the Gamma Knife Icon.

Christopher Herbert qualified in medicine at Birmingham University in 2000 and trained in clinical oncology in Bristol where he was appointed as a consultant clinical oncologist in 2011. He completed his oncology training as a clinical research fellow at the British Columbia Cancer Agency in Vancouver, Canada, where he specialized in stereotactic radiosurgery and the treatment of benign and malignant adult brain tumours. He has an interest in technical radiotherapy, specializing in the treatment of adult brain tumours, including stereotactic radiosurgery, and skin tumours, in particular malignant melanoma. Christopher has published work on stereotactic radiosurgery and external beam radiotherapy in international, peer-reviewed journals.
