Poster - Thur Eve - 09: Novel radiation safety challenges of a brachytherapy redevelopment at the Credit Valley Hospital
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Carlo Fidani Peel Regional Cancer Center at the Credit Valley Site of the Credit Valley Hospital and Trillium Health Center is currently undergoing a redevelopment to build a brachytherapy suite and associated areas with a projected start date of April 2013. The new brachytherapy suite will be located in the PRCC, and is a redevelopment of office area into clinical space. The workload for the full brachytherapy program is expected to be 20 patients per week, in cervix, prostate, skin, lung and other sites. There were challenges for shielding due services in the slab to the renal clinic located above the redevelopment area. The presence of over 30 voids in the slab and upper walls made the solution to add shielding to the underside of the current slab unsuitable. To overcome this, a second ceiling built below the slab to allow for an uninterrupted shielding for the brachytherapy suite. The additional ceiling allows for a crawl space between slab and shielding allowing for servicing if needed for the drains from the renal clinic. The appropriate finalized shielding design is 69mm of lead brick supported by steel plate and steel beams. Final shielding for the walls is 690mm of concrete that allows public access to all hallways around the facility. The final design for the new brachytherapy site at the PRCC all services for the room are located within the shielding and all services for areas outside the room are located outside the shielding.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
