Are you ready to take on a role to support and develop services within a forward-thinking and technically-advanced department? If so, then why not become part of our excellent Radiotherapy Physics team at St Lukes Cancer Centre? St Lukes Cancer Centre is focused on providing excellent patient pathways and patient-centred care. We strive to continuously evolve to reflect the technical advances within Radiotherapy, and work closely as a multi-professional team to achieve this. We have a Varian ETHOS on the Guildford site, delivering daily online adaptive radiotherapy for bladder and cervical cancers, as well as four Varian Truebeams. The satellite centre in Redhill has a newly-installed Varian Halcyon, with a second ETHOS unit to be operational from autumn 2024; both are equipped with Align-RT surface-guidance and Hypersight advanced imaging. External beam treatment planning is carried out using the Varian Eclipse system, and includes use of knowledge-based automated planning, machine learning autosegmentation and scripting for automated workflows. All systems work within a cloud-based Aria environment. We have 3 CT scanners across the two sites and use MR imaging in treatment planning, with further development of PET/CT underway. The Guildford site additionally has an orthovoltage unit, a Papillon unit for contact radiotherapy and a comprehensive, highly-renowned brachytherapy service including both HDR and LDR treatments. The successful candidate will provide scientific support across the range of radiotherapy and brachytherapy services.
