IM- Breast X-Ray Imaging

The Liberty Vision Y-90 ophthalmic applicator (LV-90) is an FDA approved HDR source for episcleral brachytherapy to treat ocular tumors and benign growths. It is an attractive option for patients because it does not require episc...

Focal dose escalation to the dominant intraprostatic lesion (GTV) improves biochemical control but is limited by urethral toxicity. 177Lu-PSMA radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT) offers a targeted boost, yet its spatial heterogenei...

Therapy Physics

Clinical translation of radiomics is hindered by the computational complexity of the feature extraction process, high-dimensional feature sets, and lack of accessible tools for healthcare professionals. We introduce MEDiml, a new...

Therapy Physics

To estimate the impact of heartbeat on the dose distribution in cardiac radioablation (CRA) patients treated with CyberKnife and compare the error in respiratory tracking to cancer patients with a similar protocol.

To enable flexible, self-consistent tuning of Enhanced Leaf Model (ELM) in Eclipse V18 photon algorithms by deriving the requisite sweeping gap measurement required to replicate the classical Dosimetric Leaf Gap (DLG) used in pre...

Accurate source localization and anatomical verification are critical for high dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy dose monitoring due to steep dose gradients. Our previous work only triangulated markers for source localization without...

Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology Physics

Accurate lesion segmentation is fundamental to medical image analysis, yet most methods are tailored to specific anatomical sites or modalities, limiting their generalizability in diverse clinical settings. While recent vision-la...

Ultra-high-dose-rate (≥40 Gy/s, UHDR) FLASH radiotherapy (RT) has shown encouraging preclinical normal tissue sparing, with equal tumor control as conventional RT. A kV dual-tube system in parallel-opposed geometry has been propo...

To develop the first quadrature RF volume coil for 10.5T MRI, using metasurface technology to overcome limitations of traditional volume coil designs.

Accurate delineation of glioma substructures on multi-parametric MRI (mp-MRI) is critical for diagnosis, radiotherapy planning, and treatment response assessment. However, manual annotation of tumor subregions is labor-intensive...

To develop a deep learning framework that simultaneously synthesizes lung perfusion and ventilation images from three-dimensional (3D) CT and to evaluate its potential clinical utility.
