DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Jason Paino (UOW)\nAppendicular osteosarcoma is a hi
 ghly destructive malignant primary bone tumour occurring in both canine an
 d human patients. Clinically\, amputation is the most common outcome\, how
 ever\, Synchrotron generated radiotherapy may provide a preferable alterna
 tive.\nBuilding from a body of knowledge acquired in small animal models\,
  client-owned dogs with spontaneously developing tumours would be an excel
 lent translational model to assess novel radiation therapies\, moving towa
 rd the ultimate goal of human patients.\n\nThis work presents a positionin
 g and dosimetry study using a canine cadaver as a proof-of-concept for vet
 erinary trials at the imaging and medical beamline of the Australian Synch
 rotron. This included x-ray imaging\, alignment to the treatment beam\, si
 mulation and prescription of a therapeutic dose and finally the delivery o
 f said prescription.\n\nhttps://events01.synchrotron.org.au/event/146/cont
