This session highlights project planning\, workflow design principles\, commissioning considerations\, and performance benchmarks needed to bring upright proton therapy from concept to clinic\, ensuring that clinics can deliver safe and patient‑centered care in this new treatment paradigm.S peaker: \;Carri Glide-Hurst\, Associate Chair for Radiation Oncology P hysics\, University of Wisconsin MadisonMonday\, July 20 – 9:45–10:15 AM.Innovation RoomBrought to you by Leo Cancer Care and our friends at Ray Search\, join us!
