To assess dosimetric impact of Halcyon/Ethos (HE) 6 MV flattening filter-free (6 MV-FFF) energy limitation when planning obese prostate patients with nodal involvement. Specifically, this study aims to develop and validate an optimization template tailored fo...
To auto-classify radiation oncology safety events reported in narrative descriptions using a large language model (LLM) and propose a framework for future AI-assisted reporting systems.
Clinical implementation of proton arc therapy is partly hindered by the low speed of beam energy switching upstream of the nozzle. To achieve fast and multiple post-nozzle energies, we propose a novel range shifter, termed the Checkerboard Range Shifter (CRS)...
Accurate breath-hold reproducibility is critical in left-sided breast irradiation to reduce cardiac and lung dose, and differences in motion management techniques may influence delivered dose accuracy. The purpose of this study is to investigate the dosimetri...
Total Skin Electron Therapy (TSET) treats cutaneous lymphomas and other superficial malignancies by delivering a uniform electron dose over the skin. Partial-body rotational TSET requires shielding of critical structures, but conventional bulky lead shields n...
Re-irradiation of brain neoplasms remains a significant clinical challenge. Resection without adjuvant re-irradiation is associated with a high local failure rate, whereas re-irradiation alone may improve local control but is associated with a high risk of ra...
Accurate catheter reconstruction is critical for treatment quality and patient safety in HDR prostate brachytherapy. Ultrasound guidance provides high-resolution imaging and excellent soft tissue contrast, yet manual digitization measurement under sterile con...
HyperSight CBCT (hCBCT) on Halcyon 4.0 provides image quality comparable to planning CT (pCT), supporting development of an offline adaptive radiotherapy (OART) workflow. This study evaluated the clinical feasibility of implementing an hCBCT-based OART workfl...
