Glioblastoma has a low median survival of 3cm from the tumor, where deformation is minimal. Vessels 80% of patients. Future work will incorporate this pathway into a full front-to-end deformable registration approach to precisely determine the origin of recur...
Effective radiotherapy for upper abdominal tumors requires dose escalation but is limited by respiratory motion and the low gastrointestinal radiation tolerance. Current clinical motion management on conventional Linacs relies on simple external surrogates th...
To study the cardiac and respiratory heart motion together. Cardiorespiratory motion management is a significant topic in stereotactic arrhythmia radiotherapy (STAR). Cardiorespiratory motion consists of the heart beating and respiration. Commonly studied sep...
Radiotherapy for upper abdominal cancers is limited by respiratory motion and the low radiation tolerance, restricting safe dose escalation. Conventional linear accelerators rely on kV X-ray and CBCT imaging but lack real-time internal motion tracking capabil...
Managing cardiac and respiratory motion is critical for stereotactic arrhythmia radiotherapy (STAR), thoracic, and breast treatments. Breath-hold cardiac 4DCT (c4DCT) is commonly required for assessing cardiac motion, while respiratory 4DCT (r4DCT) is used fo...
