Tarek Halabi, PhD DABR

Tarek Halabi has over 10 years of experience both as a clinical medical physicist and a programmer of automations in clinical medical physics. His experience spans most treatment types and modalities: photon, proton, GammaKnife, CyberKnife, HDR, LDR, TBI, IORT. Dr. Halabi is experienced in automations involving all major R&V and planning systems and has worked at and collaborated with many of the country's top institutions. Today, Dr. Halabi is fully committed to and focused on running ART services.
