Speaker

Dr. Kelly Paradis, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Medical Physics & Associate Chair of Wellbeing and Equity, Department of Radiation Oncology at Michigan Medicine

Dr. Kelly Paradis is an Associate Professor of Medical Physics and the Associate Chair of Wellbeing and Equity within the Department of Radiation Oncology at Michigan Medicine. She received her PhD in atomic physics from the University of Michigan in 2010, then went on to complete her medical physics residency at Michigan Medicine before becoming a faculty member in the same department in 2014. Her research interests include reirradiation, advanced treatment planning, and healthcare workforce equity.

Abstract

In this talk, Dr. Paradis will present the special medical physics consult workflow used at Michigan Medicine to treat reirradiation patients. Using several clinical examples, she will highlight the responsibilities of the medical physicist, strategies to ensure consistent analysis, specialized tools needed, and potential hazards in the workflow.
