I'm not sure if @xkcd Randall Munroe's wife Megan had radiotherapy - but anyway, I'm going to put his latest beautiful and poignant cartoon on my office wall: a reminder that what we try to do is to make time for people to do the things they love with the people they love.

A very happy 6th birthday to the first Halcyon in the world to have kV-CBCT imaging. Still going strong as it marches into linac middle-age, and soon to be doing surface-guided treatments with Identify @RTatBHRUT @BHRUT_NHS @VarianMedSys @varianuk
BHR RT Physics@BHR_RTPhysics

Physics & Radiotherapy staff @BHR_hospitals today with the world's first patient treated on @VarianMedSys Halcyon v2.0 - kV CBCT, double-stacked MLCs improving plan quality, and faster patient set-up. Well done to all @RTatBHRUT & @BHR_RTPhysics, and to @varianuk for the upgrade.

Utterly trivial post, but I'm curious - users of NHS email: has your default font changed to Aptos? I've changed mine back to Calibri. Getting a lot of NHS emails with Aptos. Constantly embracing change in radiotherapy physics, but for some reason I find this change unsettling...

Look at the size of that panel! Very excited to have UK's first @VarianMedSys HyperSight imaging system on our Ethos linac. CBCTs in 6 secs, improved reconstruction algorithms reducing artefacts, lower dose to patients. More details in images' ALT text. @RTatBHRUT @RTatBHRUT

The Radiotherapy Physics stall at @BHRUT_NHS "NHS 75 Expo Past, Present and Future": some old dosimetrey equipment, pieces of linacs, patient immobilisation devices, and pictures & diagrams describing radiotherapy since 1896. The patient masks got the most attention! #nhs75
