It's been 130 years since Dr Edith Quimby was born. 1st medical physicist even before #medicalphysics was coined. She worked w others to form @aapmHQ
Edith Quimby award is a prestigious award given annually to #MPs who have made significant contributions to the field
Her particular interest was in how & where to place the radioactive needles within the tumor for maximum therapeutic efficiency that led to "Quimby Rules"
@AAWR_org @AAPM_WPSC @aapmWGSTR
The result was the "Quimby rules", a set of guidelines for exactly where to put the radium needles relative to one another which were standardly used from the 1930s until the onset of computerized treatment planning in the 1980s. @aapmstsc

C-arm: The Mini Saga…Happy Mode

2 pm: Surgical corridor: Overheard snoring! Taking the covers off the Mini C-arm

Medical Physicist (MP): Hi buddy, How’s the day going?

Mini C-arm: Living the dreams doc!

MP: What do you mean?

Mini C-arm: Well today the hand surgeon was so delicate & handled me so well

MP: Who is the hand surgeon that impressed you so much?

Mini C-arm: She is the top hand surgeon in the country dude–no wonder she is the top, because, I could say that from the way she handled me

2/
MP: How?

Mini C-arm: You know when someone roughs you up, you give them back kindly, with me I give them back lousy images. OTH, if they handle me nicely, I try my best to give the best images.

C-arm: The Mini Saga continues…

2 pm: Surgical corridor: Overheard snoring! Upon shaking the covers, heard the following conversations

Medical Physicist (MP): Hi buddy, what’s happening – why are you sleeping in this corner?

1/
Mini C-arm: Well, we had a good day, the surgeon finished early. So, they let me go & I was resting until you disturbed me

MP: How come you are not sulking like your big brother?

Mini: Are you talking about that guy with the flat head (c-arm with flat panel detector)?

2/
MP: Yes, he is the one around the corner, w cylindrical head guys (C-arm w Image Intensifier)

Mini: He thinks since he has flat head & is digital, he is better than the cylindrical guys. They said to me other day at the pub. That’s why they often desert him & go to parties.
