We investigate the feasibility of using daily setup free-breathing cone-beam CT (CBCT) as a functional imaging modality to generate longitudinal ventilation maps throughout the treatment course, with the goal of detecting emerging lung function impairment dur...

An improved imager and software (HyperSight on a Varian TrueBeam linac) feature a larger detector panel and increase the maximum gantry rotation speed for CBCT imaging to 1.5 revolutions per minute (rpm). While enabling faster acquisition, its impact on free-...
This study proposes a transformer-based deep learning framework for markerless lung tumor tracking that improves localization accuracy, robustness, and computational efficiency of real-time intrafraction motion management for seamless clinical integration.
Markerless lung tumor tracking has the potential to reduce target margins and improve organ-at-risk (OAR) sparing during radiotherapy. We previously proposed a deep learning–based target decomposition approach for real-time markerless lung tumor tracking. Thi...
