First day of rad onc and most of it was spent watching radiation occur on patients and listening to an explanation of how radiation gets planned. Some of it was pretty interesting. The watching part..... um..... would it be bad to say it was...... not exciting?
Not too worried about it though, since watching radiation is not likely to be a typical daily activity for me. I have concerns that extensive shadowing might be, but then maybe it won't. I did get to do a consult today. It was ok, though I have to say that I miss Pennsy's smaller size and friendlier staff whom I already know. Oh well. This should be fine too once I give it a little time.
The field is unlike any other I've ever seen before. Really neat. Especially the science behind it.
1 Pearls of Wisdom:
I always figured rad-onc was kind of dry and filled with too much physics. Good for you for getting into it.
