Farshad Foroudi

I am a consultant radiation oncologist with a particular interest in uro-oncology, breast cancer and palliative radiotherapy. I have led the development of image guided and adaptive radiotherapy at the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, with our pilot work leading to an Australian and New Zealand trial in bladder cancer. I am the Australia principle investigator for the international RAIDER-B trial. I have been the chief investigator on local, state and national research grants in excess of $4.5 million in the last five years. In 2015, I commenced as Director of Radiation Oncology at Austin Health covering radiation oncology both at the Olivia Newton John Cancer Centre and Ballarat Regional Cancer Centre. Prior to my current position I held a leadership position at the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre since 2006 as the Chair/Director of the Uro-Oncology service. I am president elect of the Trans Tasman Radiation Oncology Group. My particular interests are in patient care, multi-disciplinary care and new technology implementation.
