For BgRT treatment on the RefleXion X1 linac, patients must meet stringent criteria regarding the proximity and 18F-FDG activity of OARs near the target. The next-generation X2 platform has an increased PET field of view, and new planning, PET detection, and...
Treating multiple oligometastatic lesions typically requires creating separate SBRT plans, resulting in longer treatment time and an increase in planning complexity. In this work we evaluate biology-guided multi-target treatment (MTT) approach for a PET-linea...
The Mayo Clinic Florida microdosimetric kinetic model (MCF MKM) provides highly accurate relative biological effectiveness (RBE) calculations for carbon ion radiation therapy (CIRT), but its clinical use is limited by extreme memory and computational demands...
Synchrotron-based proton spot scanning includes non-productive dead time from layer switching and spill change/reinjection. In dose-driven continuous scanning, spill changes are commonly triggered only after beam exhaustion, causing sequential overheads. We p...
Deep learning (DL)-based dose prediction has become an important component of modern radiotherapy treatment planning. However, most existing approaches depend on site-specific models, necessitating separate training for each anatomical site, which limits scal...
