Details about the Hiring Site

The Magna Regional Cancer Centre at Southlake Health provides advanced radiation treatment to 1700 patients annually in the York and South Simcoe Region. Our program houses 5 Elekta linear accelerators including the Harmony model which was the first installed in Canada; a Philips big-bore CT simulator and a Siemens Vision 600 PET-CT, and MosaiQ as the Oncology Information System. Our treatment planning system is currently under transition from Pinnacle to RayStation. Modern radiotherapy techniques such as volumetric modulated arc therapy, intensity modulated radiation therapy, stereotactic body radiotherapy and image guided radiotherapy are routinely used for all applicable disease sites. Magna Regional Cancer Centre (MRCC) provides the learning experience of a welcoming, innovative and dynamic radiation program. The physics resident will be fully integrated into the physics team at MRCC; they will gain clinical knowledge and experience through close interaction with multidisciplinary members in a medium sized radiation program. The physics resident will spend approximately 20% of their time doing clinical rotations of specialized programs/techniques at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre.
