To develop a simple protocol for dose verification of Leipzig surface HDR applicators using Gafchromic EBT3 film.
To evaluate dosimetric differences and dose calculation efficiency between the Anisotropic Analytical Algorithm (AAA) and Acuros XB for volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT)-based total body irradiation (TBI) planning.
To quantify the dosimetric impact of pelvic bone electron density (ED) assignment on dose accuracy and target coverage in an adapt-to-shape (ATS) MR-guided adaptive radiotherapy (MRgRT) workflow on a 1.5 T MR-Linac for prostate stereotactic body radiotherapy...
To quantify the impact of lead aprons on reducing out-of-field fetal dose during external beam photon intracranial treatments.
To assess how different treatment planning techniques affect dose homogeneity and OAR sparing in VMAT total-body irradiation (TBI) plans.
To quantify the impact of interfractional variations on the dosimetric quality of VMAT TBI plans, primarily caused by potentially inconsistent upper limb placement at treatment; and to determine a clinically optimal setup for plan robustness against such vari...
