•	Technical Excellence: Sessions also delved into Stereotactic treatments and the physics behind camera-to-couch shifts, presented by specialists from institutions like Ruby Hall Clinic and Reliance Foundation Hospital.
Expert Panel Discussions
Two major panel discussions were the highlight of the day, focusing on the "Final Frontiers" of Head & Neck treatment and the "New Standards" for Breast, Abdomen, and Thorax care. These panels allowed for a robust exchange of real-world workflows and clinical results among the attendees.
Live Demonstrations
The afternoon sessions featured Live Demonstrations of various kinds of techniques like DIBH  for breast treatment, mask-less treatment for head and neck patients, pelvic treatments etc providing participants with a hands-on look at how SGRT integrates into daily clinical practice to improve patient safety and treatment efficiency.
