To apply a proton procedure of optimizing spot weight and Ridge Filter (RF) to single-energy carbon pencil beam and evaluate it in a water phantom with a square-shape target in the center (prescription dose 50 Gy).

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...

In this preliminary study, we introduce an iterative implicit neural representation method for improving sparse‑view CBCT (INR-CBCT) for image-guided-radiotherapy.

Routine CT quality assurance (QA) relies on visual inspection, where subtle non-uniformities can be difficult to identify consistently across scanners and readers. We developed an efficient, interpretable artificial intelligence-assisted tool that detects and...

The Imaging and Radiation Oncology Core (IROC) IMRT head and neck (HN) phantom continues to show unacceptable delivery rates at ~10%. Increased understanding of what drives performance on this audit would assist in targeted improvement of radiotherapy quality...

This work presents the Radiotherapy Dose Inference and Analysis Toolkit (RADIANT), an open-source, fully configurable framework for 3D radiotherapy dose prediction. Built upon the Medical Imaging Segmentation Toolkit, RADIANT supports a wide range of network...

To evaluate dynamic MRI scheduling policies for reducing patient changeover time and shortening daily clinic operating hours across multiple imaging centers.
