Open-source software offers a transparent and cost-effective alternative to commercial, patient-specific quality assurance (PSQA) systems; however, clinical validation remains essential. This study aims to validate open-source Pylinac (PL) based gamma analysi...
This study investigates the limitations of Collapsed Cone Convolution (CCC) dose calculation algorithm in accurately modeling dose perturbations in nanoparticle-enhanced radiotherapy for lung tumors. The feasibility of CCC is compared with a Monte Carlo (MC)...
High–atomic number hafnium oxide (HafO₂) nanoparticles have demonstrated potential as radio-enhancers, but their detectability using standard CT calibration is limited. This work aims to (1) establish CT calibration curves for HafO₂ solutions of known concent...
