Center news : Medical Physics and Radiotherapy: The Key Role of the Medical Physicist at CMIK

Radiotherapy is one of the major cancer treatments. At the Ibn Khaldoun Medical Center (CMIK), the medical physicist plays a vital yet often overlooked role.

Their mission: ensuring treatment accuracy and patient safety.

They calculate, plan, and verify each radiation dose to destroy cancer cells while preserving healthy tissue.

From planning to verification:

• Designing treatment plans with advanced software.
• Calibrating and testing equipment
• Performing regular quality checks according to international standards.

A team effort:

Medical physicists work closely with radiation oncologists and radiotherapy technicians to tailor treatments to each patient.

A role for the future:

By advancing radiotherapy techniques, they make treatments increasingly precise and better tolerated.

At CMIK, their daily commitment embodies one promise: to provide every patient with safe, effective, and high-quality treatment.
