Today, Andrew Robinson talks to us about adaptive radiotherapy, where we are with it now, and the potential it has for the future. Adaptive radiotherapy has been around for many years, but it is not currently standard practice. Essentially, there are different ways in which we can adapt radiotherapy treatment, which Andrew explains during this episode. Helene, a member of our Patient and Public Involvement and Engagement (PPIE) Group, asks questions about what this may mean for radiotherapy practice and how the workforce may manage some of the associated challenges.

Andrew is the Head of Radiotherapy Physics in the Radiotherapy Department at Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, UK. He is a Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC)-registered Clinical Scientist, Medical Physics Expert, and Higher Specialist Scientist. Andrew has experience across many areas of radiotherapy physics including quality control, dosimetry, prostate brachytherapy, stereotactic radiotherapy planning, and equipment replacement projects.
