To develop an optimization procedure of spot weight and ridge filter (RF) dimension for single-energy proton pencil beam and apply it to a water phantom with a square-shape target in the center (prescription dose 50 Gy).
Radiotherapy treatment planning is a resource-intensive process characterized by multiple manual steps that can contribute to treatment delays and inter-observer variability. The Radiation Planning Assistant (RPA) is a web-based platform designed to deliver a...
There are many recent advances in linear energy transfer (LET) optimized proton therapy planning, radiation biology, immune therapy, and molecular imaging with the potential to improve the efficacy of radiation oncology. The aim of this talk is to present fea...
