To compare the traditional Computed Tomography Dose Index (CTDI) and the Cone-Beam-Dose-Index (CBDI), an alternative metric that quantifies the average dose in the central region of a cone-beam CT (CBCT) scan, for imaging dose measurements on bore-based linac...

Describe highlights of organizational changes that allowed for the ramp-up of the radiopharmaceutical trials program at the University of Miami Health System (UHealth)

Persistent difficulty in recruiting therapeutic medical physicists, particularly outside large metropolitan and/or academic centers, suggests a geographic mismatch between training locations and workforce demand. While residency programs have expanded nationa...

Metal artifacts caused by implanted gold fiducial markers remain a significant challenge in cone-beam CT (CBCT) imaging for prostate radiotherapy. Their high attenuation generates severe streaks and image distortions that decrease overall image quality. This...

Quantitative PET imaging biomarkers such as metabolic tumor volume (MTV) and maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) have demonstrated prognostic value in lymphoma; however, these metrics fail to characterize intratumor heterogeneity. This study aimed to a...

A Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Artificial Intelligence (AI) Agent was developed to accurately, reliably, and quickly address queries and prompts that pertain to regulatory and accreditation compliance, specific to the use of ionizing radiation under t...
