About
Dr. Sarah Everitt is a pioneering researcher in the field of medical physics, with a focused expertise in the technical development and clinical implementation of upright radiation therapy. Her most significant contribution is the establishment of a comprehensive technical framework for delivering modern, high-precision radiotherapy to patients in a seated or standing position. Her seminal 2022 work, "Please Place Your Seat in the Full Upright Position," provides the foundational blueprint for this paradigm shift, detailing the requirements for arc and modulated therapies in a non-supine setting. This research addresses critical limitations of conventional treatment by demonstrating how upright positioning can dramatically enhance patient comfort, reduce irradiation of healthy tissues, and potentially enable the design of smaller, more accessible treatment machines. With her work accumulating over a dozen citations in a short period, Dr. Everitt is recognized as a key architect of a more patient-centric and technologically efficient future in radiation oncology.
