What exactly do medical physicists do?
Medical physicists have many career options around the world, from clinical roles and jobs in industry and academia to computational simulations and testing new scanners, but it's still not a well-known field. They can even be mistaken for a physiotherapist. So what exactly do they do?

Simulated PET scans verify proton therapy delivery
Researchers have moved closer to the real-time verification of hadron therapy, demonstrating the in vivo accuracy of simulations that predict particle range in the patient. The new Monte Carlo tool is a key component of a system that measures particle range during treatment and compares it with the predictions.

Phase-contrast imaging can cut mammogram dose
Optimized x-ray phase-contrast imaging could deliver comparable image quality to mammography, but at a much lower dose, a European research project has found. The technique was demonstrated using a synchrotron source, but is compatible with lab-based, polychromatic x-ray sources.

First Australian MRI-linac proves feasible
Real-time image guidance of radiotherapy using MRI promises dramatically improved tumor targeting and an increase in the number of treatable disease sites. An MR-guided cobalt-60 unit is already in clinical use and three groups are developing integrated MRI-linac systems.

Ultrasound monitors therapeutic microbubbles
In new work, U.K researchers have estimated microbubble velocities during therapeutic ultrasound exposure by measuring the Doppler shift of ultrasound emitted by the microbubbles as they underwent cavitation. The measurements are implementable in real-time with existing detectors.

Functional MRI algorithm maps brain function
An algorithm that generates reproducible, personalized maps of neural networks in the brain using functional MRI has been demonstrated by an international collaboration. The noninvasive approach could enable more efficient planning of neurosurgery for brain tumors and disorders such as epilepsy.
