Workflow Optimization in Radiation Oncology: From Theory to Clinical Implementation, AAPM Monograph No. 41

Technological advances in radiation oncology that promise improvements in workflow efficiency are frequently adopted in response to pressure to do things faster and to get more done with fewer resources. The results of such improvements hinge not only on the technology but on how they are integrated into the overall clinical system as a whole. Throughout history, other industries have developed theories related to production optimization, and we can learn from their experiences. These lessons are applied to radiation oncology workflows and meaningful avenues are explored to integrate technology into daily operations. The primary audience for this book is therapy medical physicists but radiation oncologists, dosimetrists, therapists, trainees, and managers/directors of radiation oncology departments as well as developers in the healthcare automation space will also find it useful.
