Real-time dose verification remains a critical unmet need in radiation therapy. We developed physics-informed AI models for radiacoustic imaging (RAI) to enable quantitative, real-time in vivo dose monitoring for proton therapy. Our approach addresses two big...
Static apertures in pencil beam scanning (PBS) proton therapy improve lateral dose falloff but are optimal only for a single energy layer and perform poorly for shallow targets where range shifters increase spot size. This work proposes dynamic individual spo...
Protoacoustic (PA) imaging enables real-time verification of proton dose deposition by reconstructing 3D initial pressure maps from acoustic signals generated during proton delivery. However, in practical treatment settings, detectors cannot fully surround th...
