In many parts of the world, patients face limited or no access to medical imaging and radiotherapy, which are essential for diagnosing and treating cancer and other diseases. High costs of equipment, dependence on highly specialized staff, and the need for ad...
Cone beam has been a mainstay modality across a wide range of clinical applications. Ongoing innovations in both hardware and software continue to expand its capabilities to address the evolving needs for improved image quality, dose efficiency, and workflow...
On-board kV imaging systems on proton therapy machines predominantly rely on scintillator-based energy-integrating detectors (EIDs) for planar imaging and cone-beam CT (CBCT). However, EID-based CBCT is limited by suboptimal image quality and insufficient qua...
Widespread adoption of quantitative imaging (QI) techniques has been hampered due to limited information regarding precision, bias, repeatability and reproducibility. Session speakers will describe state-of-the-art QI techniques in spectral CT, quantitative M...
Imaging phantoms are foundational to building reliable, scalable, and equitable imaging systems. This symposium provides an overview of how contemporary phantoms and phantom-based methods connect benchtop measurements to clinical performance. The following th...
Digital twins—computational replicas of patients, organs, or biological systems—are redefining how we model disease, predict treatment response, and personalize medical care. By integrating imaging, biological, and clinical data with physics-based and AI-driv...
