The study on the planning of the future radiation therapy

为了探索日本今后在放射肿瘤学领域的发展方向，我们对西方和亚洲国家的放射肿瘤学现状进行了调查。1.我们迫切需要继续加强日本高科技放射治疗的基础设施。3.我们急需改革高科技放射治疗系统，引进剂量测量师和医学物理学家，这些专家已被西方和亚洲其他国家接受为新的医疗专业人员。JASTRO和JSRT已经建立了一个新的系统，其中人员获得放射质量管理人员的许可，作为提高日本放射肿瘤学质量的第一步。现在，他们学习放射肿瘤学领域的课程，以取得医学医师的资格。6.国立癌症中心和京都大学建立了一个名为放射治疗支持中心的非盈利组织，以减少医疗事故的数量。8.我们建议继续进行这类研究，以便在日本建立一个新的和改进的放射肿瘤学系统。

We have looked into the status of radiation oncology in Western and Asian countries to explore ways to make improvements in this field here in Japan in the future.1.We urgently need to keep on strengthening the infrastructure of high tech radiation therapy in Japan.2.Radiation oncologists and radiotherapy technicians have extremely heavy workloads. This situation has led to an unfortunate increase in medical accidents.3.We urgently need to revamp the system for high tech radiation therapy by introducing dosimetrists and medical physicists, specialists who are already being accepted as new medical professionals both in Western and other Asian countries.4.Rather than depending on dosimetrists as in the West, JASTRO and JSRT has set up a new system in which people become licensed as radiation quality managers as the first step in improving the quality of radiation oncology in Japan.5.Master's and Doctoral candidates in the Department of Nuclear Technology at major national universities can now take courses in the field of radiation oncology to qualify as medical physicists.6.The nonprofit organization named Radiation Therapy Support Center has been established by the National Cancer Center and Kyoto University to decrease the number of medical accidents.7.Two years of research have revealed important ways to maintain QA in radiation oncology. Efforts toward that end are already in place.8.We recommend continuing this kind of research in moving toward a new and improved system of radiation oncology in Japan.
