I have extensive experience in maintaining and calibrating radiotherapy equipment, including linear accelerators and CT simulators. My previous role involved regular preventive maintenance checks, troubleshooting, and ensuring all equipment met regulatory standards. I am proficient in using various diagnostic tools and software to maintain optimal performance and patient safety.

I ensure the accuracy and reliability of radiotherapy treatment planning systems by conducting regular software updates, performing quality assurance tests, and collaborating with medical physicists. I also maintain detailed logs of all maintenance activities and calibration results to track performance over time and address any issues promptly.

To minimize downtime, I implement a proactive maintenance schedule that includes regular inspections and preventive maintenance. I also maintain a well-stocked inventory of spare parts and collaborate closely with vendors for timely repairs. Additionally, I provide training to the clinical staff on basic troubleshooting to address minor issues quickly.

In such a critical situation, my priority is to quickly diagnose the issue and, if possible, restore the equipment to operation. I would immediately notify the clinical team and initiate a backup plan, such as transferring the patient to an alternative machine. I would also document the failure thoroughly and schedule a detailed investigation to prevent future occurrences.

I have a strong background in ensuring regulatory compliance, including adherence to standards set by organizations like the FDA and AAPM. I regularly review and update compliance protocols, conduct internal audits, and ensure all equipment and procedures meet the required safety and quality standards. My goal is to maintain a safe and compliant environment for both patients and staff.
