On the second day, small groups will facilitate in-depth training of practical guidelines for HT treatment delivery, with hands-on practice with HT software and hardware using anatomical experimental phantoms. Attending practitioners will be made aware of the powerful adjuvant effect of combining HT with the different forms of radiation treatment and will benefit from a HT formal training in a clinical environment.
