Hi Brian,

I'd like a bit of help clearing up the role of dosimetrist vs medical physicist. My experience had me believing the RO and dosimetrist worked together to create the map and dosage using the software planning tools.

My understanding of the role of physicist is to establish and monitor standards and procedures are being followed as well as calibrating and testing all the accelerator hardware and software and facilities. It did not seem the RO and medical physicist had regular interaction on each individual case as is the case with the RO and dosimetrist.
