I joined Memorial Sloan Kettering in 2000 as a senior medical physicist and am currently an Associate Attending Physicist in the Division of Radiotherapy Physics of the Department of Medical Physics.
My work involves developing and providing quality control for radiation therapy treatment plans. I have expertise in specialized treatment techniques such as respiratory gating and stereotactic radiosurgery, which enhances precision during radiation therapy while sparing healthy tissues surrounding a tumor. I am also actively involved in the clinical process of radiation therapy, from simulation to delivering the final treatment. In addition to my clinical duties, I am the Director of the Quality Improvement Section in the Department of Medical Physics. I also oversee the treatment planning activities across the whole network, maintaining quality and consistency and providing education and clinical support.
Currently, my research focuses on automation of Plan Quality Audits across the network.
I received a PhD in physics from the University of Cordoba in Argentina.
