Terrance N. Teslow

Senior Clinical Physicist

Dr. Teslow specializes in therapeutic and diagnostic radiological physics with current emphasis on clinical applications of helical Tomotherapy. His area of interest includes radiobiological modeling of time, tissue, and dose interactions using Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) techniques. Specfically he is developing 4-dimensional Tomoimaging strategies for Tomotherapeutic delivery.
