■  Getting It Right the First Time: How Beekley Medical RT-SPOT Elevated Skin Markers Are Changing CT Simulation

 

Accuracy and efficiency go hand in hand in radiation therapy. Radiation therapists, dosimetrists, and medical physicists know that the foundation of every successful treatment plan starts with one critical step: CT simulation. It’s where precise planning begins—and where small errors can lead to major downstream challenges. 

One common source of frustration in the simulation process is the interference of traditional skin markers in the automatic body contour. It might seem like a minor inconvenience, but when you’re trying to stay on schedule, minimize patient discomfort, and support seamless planning, every second and every scan matters.

Poor Communication Can Lead to Ambiguous Scans

News

MRI technologists rely heavily on these descriptions, but when symptoms aren’t clear, it can create guesswork during imaging. Later, radiologists stare at these ambiguous scans, trying to decode exactly what they’re seeing since the technologist struggles to communicate the patient’s issue and may not be able to articulate it in the accompanying report.Picture an MRI…

Navigating the Challenges of MRI Communication

News

In the fast-paced world of MRI diagnostics, clear communication between MRI technologists and radiologists is a must—but let’s face it—it’s not always smooth sailing. Often, patients describe pain or discomfort that doesn’t neatly line up with textbook anatomical landmarks, leaving technologists and radiologists playing detective. This ambiguity can lead to unclear images, potential misdiagnoses, extra…
