Automation and geometric verification tools are increasingly important in radiotherapy for non-coplanar stereotactic treatments. This study implements a patient-specific 3D modeling–based method to generate gantry–couch collision maps from clinical DICOM data...

To compare the dosimetric performance of the Anisotropic Analytical Algorithm (AAA) and Acuros XB (AXB) in IMRT plans recommended by the TG-119 protocol.

Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) delivered with linear accelerators requires submillimetric mechanical, geometric, and dosimetric accuracy. Although postal and remote audit programs are widely available, they do not fully capture system performance under clini...

Multileaf collimators (MLCs) are essential in radiotherapy, and their modeling in the treatment planning system directly affects dose accuracy. This study compares the performance of the Enhanced Leaf Model (ELM) in Eclipse v18.1 with the Simple Leaf Model (S...

To assess the effect of Monte Carlo (MC) grid resolution on dose estimation in cranial radiotherapy across different tumor types.

In combined external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) and brachytherapy treatments, the ICRU 89 and GEC-ESTRO guidelines establish the use of EQD2 for radiobiological assessment. However, clinical verification is currently often restricted to volumetric paramete...
