To experimentally characterize low-energy helium-4 (⁴He⁺) ion beams at subclinical energies (0.5–1.5 MeV/u) at the newly commissioned ASPIRE facility at TRIUMF using radiochromic film dosimetry, and to validate the measured dose distributions through Monte Ca...

To evaluate the feasibility of delivering minibeam spatially fractionated radiation therapy (SFRT) using a novel, low-cost, dual-robot system, the Kilovoltage Optimized AcceLerator for Adaptive therapy (KOALA).

To optimize a N-Isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM)-based polymer gel dosimeter for kilovoltage x-ray irradiations, and to demonstrate its application for 3D isocenter verification.
