Program details

Overview

Technologie de radio-oncologie (142.D0) is a technical DEC in health sciences at Collège Ahuntsic that trains students to plan and administer radiotherapy treatments for people with cancer, alongside developing the interpersonal skills needed to support patients throughout treatment. Radio-oncology technologists work as part of a multidisciplinary team and, according to the page, generally follow a daytime, weekday schedule. The page states that Collège Ahuntsic operates the largest radio-oncology training centre in Quebec and is the only cégep offering the program in French on the Island of Montreal. It also describes optional one-day discovery and observation internships at hospital radiotherapy centres in Trois-Rivières and Gatineau for interested students. Typical tasks listed on the page include attending to patient well-being through humanized, empathetic care, planning and administering radiotherapy treatments, developing treatment plans that account for the tumour and surrounding organs using computer systems, and fabricating specialized immobilization devices for patients. The program suits people who connect easily with others and show empathy, have an aptitude for physics, communication and biology, work well in teams, and combine good manual dexterity with a methodical, detail-oriented approach.
