Modern linear accelerators maintain precise control of delivery parameters during the treatment of dynamic external beam radiotherapy treatment plans; vendors provide snapshots of these parameters using trajectory log files (TLF). This project aims to investi...
This study investigates the feasibility of using two affordable optical surface–imaging technologies to generate detailed 3D maps of the treatment room and patient surface for detecting and mitigating potential collisions between the proton nozzle and the pat...
A novel, low-cost 3D surface scanning system was developed using a custom modification of the laser-profiling technique. Proof of concept was demonstrated through 3D simulation in Blender 3D software. A real-world prototype was then implemented using a consum...
Conventional methods for testing proton pencil-beams require multiple quality assurance tools that lack efficiency and spatiotemporal resolutions. Here, we used our efficient ultra-high-resolution scintillation imaging system to verify that two gantry-mounted...
