PET imaging of positrons emitted during megavoltage radiotherapy has not been implemented due to concern of high-count rates. This computational study explores the feasibility of coincidence-counting experiments using two scintillators inside the linac vault...
To leverage 3-D surface guidance (SGRT) to investigate the relationship between lung volume and tracked surface area to be used for personalization and optimization of inhalation-based solid nanoparticle treatment simulations.
To investigate the time dependent distribution of gold nanoparticles released from a loaded brachytherapy spacer and the impact on the concomitant dose distribution in Iodine-125 low dose rate brachytherapy treatment.
Iatrogenic cognitive deficits are a major concern in neuro-radiotherapy, especially in pediatric cases. Compared to X-ray treatment modalities, proton and ion beam therapies show improved sparing of cognitive functions, for which optimal neuronal dendritic br...
