Radiation Oncologist
ABOUT DR. PRAYONGRAT
Dr.Prayongrat is an attending staff at Division of Radiation Oncology, King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital, and a lecturer of Radiation Oncology, Department of Radiology, Faculty of Medicine, Chulalongkorn University. She specializes on the radiation treatment for CNS tumors, head and neck cancers, and gastrointestinal cancers using advance radiation techniques including intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT), stereotactic radiosurgery/radiotherapy (SRS/SRT), and proton therapy. Her research interest involves clinical research on advance radiotherapy and predictive modelling for tumor control and radiation toxicity by the integration of clinical data, dosiomics, and radiomics. Dr.Prayongrat is the co-investigator of a multi-institutional Phase II/III randomized trial that compares outcomes of IMRT versus IMPT in esophageal cancer.
