DynamicARC is a pencil beam scanning (PBS) proton therapy technique designed to improve delivery efficiency and plan quality. This study evaluated how energy layer spacing (ELS) affects target coverage, dose homogeneity, and organ-at-risk (OAR) sparing in lun...

To quantify the impact of a prostate motion model on target robustness under setup and range uncertainty, and to evaluate whether anatomical robust optimization improves robustness while maintaining nominal OAR constraint compliance.
In current clinical practice, RT parameters such as total dose and dose per fraction are not limited to but primarily determined by the TNM stage and histology of the tumor. In this standardized treatment approach, interpatient tumor heterogeneities are not a...
To evaluate a hybrid radiotherapy planning technique combining conventional 3D conformal tangential fields with limited VMAT arcs (hybrid 3DCRT–VMAT) for whole‑breast irradiation, and compare its dosimetric performance, organ-at-risk sparing, and resource eff...
Lung cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide and often begins with small lung nodules visible on CT scans. Early and accurate classification of these nodules is essential for timely diagnosis and effective treatment. Howeve...
This study aimed to develop, validate, and corroborate an innovative Breast Asymmetry Score (BAS) derived from optical breast spectroscopy (OBS) as a non-invasive indicator of breast cancer risk, and to integrate BAS with established epidemiological risk fact...
To investigate the response of a plastic scintillator dosimeter in quantifying depth-dose distributions and beam spot characteristics in a clinical proton therapy setting, using both Monte Carlo modeling and experimental comparison.
