Preclinical studies combining radiation with gadolinium-based AGuIX nanoparticles show potent radiosensitization effect. However, physics simulations to date show a lack of macroscopic dose enhancement. We address this by shiftin...

To mechanistically define the beam parameter space required for FLASH radioprotection, moving beyond Mean Dose Rate (MDR) to identify critical constraints in pulse structure (dose-per-pulse and frequency).

to evaluate the impact of beam selection: 6MV FFF beams vs 6MV FF on the dosimetric quality of lung and liver SBRT treatment plans, beam on time (BOT) and monitor units (MU).

The bladder is kept full during prostate proton therapy to push the small and large intestines out of the radiation field and maintain a consistent position for the bladder and nearby pelvic organs. However, it is a challenge to...

To investigate dose calculations in low-density media and identify potential clinical impacts on lung stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) patients.

The study aims to develop and validate a radiomics model using multiple sequence (MS) -MRI to predict the OS rate in patients diagnosed with NPC.

To investigate and improve the diagnostic performance of preoperative prediction of the Ki-67 expression index using CT-based radiomics.

Accurate small-field dosimetry for stereotactic radiosurgery is challenging due to steep dose gradients and detector positioning limitations. This study evaluates the feasibility of using a high-resolution diode detector, secured...

To investigate the feasibility of three-dimensional fiducial localization using small-angle kV image pairs from adjacent projections as a time-efficient alternative to conventional orthogonal imaging, and to determine the minimum...

The combination of FLASH and ion-beam therapy could potentially enhance the therapeutic index of radiation therapy. The goal of this study was to establish a FLASH effect modeling approach for ion beams based on microdosimetry.

To evaluate the feasibility and adapt-to-shape (ATS) workflow efficiency of a novel UPFRONT "Brachy-like" Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) technique delivered via MR-LINAC. This upfront boost aims to deliver a steep-gra...

This study aims to assess the role of immobilization device design and material quality in improving radiotherapy precision for patients of all ages and treatment intents—from pediatric to adult cases and from curative to palliat...

To address the persistent loss of connectivity and thickness instability in 3D microscopy segmentation of tubular structures, we propose a topology-aware learning framework that explicitly supervises tubular geometry beyond voxel...

To explore the value of radiological features extracted from T2-weighted imaging (T 2 WI) images of the parotid gland of patients with nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) in predicting advanced radiation xerostomia after radiotherapy.

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 res...

To develop and evaluate a log-file–based PSQA method for the ViewRay MRIdian MR-Linac that incorporates actual machine delivery information to improve the robustness of adaptive treatment plan verification.

To assess dosimetric impact of Halcyon/Ethos (HE) 6 MV flattening filter-free (6 MV-FFF) energy limitation when planning obese prostate patients with nodal involvement. Specifically, this study aims to develop and validate an opt...

To develop and test an automated pipeline to pre-determine optimal beam angles for proton beam therapy before planning begins. This provides treatment planners with clinically viable beam configurations without the time investmen...

Electron beam therapy has been used for treating shallow tumors such as skin cancers and postoperative keloids because of its favorable surface‑dose characteristics and simple clinical workflow. These treatments are often deliver...

Spatially fractionated lattice radiotherapy enables dose escalation in bulky tumors by embedding high-dose vertices within a lower-dose background. In veterinary radiation oncology, tumors are frequently relatively large and geom...

To validate the accuracy of CuraProton, a newly developed proton therapy treatment planning system, through comprehensive type testing of depth dose distributions and transverse dose profiles across multiple clinically complex sc...

Radiation therapy is utilized as an adjuvant treatment after breast conserving surgery in early-stage breast cancer patients. There are several protocols available for management of early-stage breast cancer. The purpose of the s...

To evaluate dosimetric uncertainties associated with the small proton fields using spot-scanning beams used in intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT).

Uncertainty-aware multimodal biomarker-guided treatment response prediction in metastatic NSCLC remains a critical unmet need to support robust therapy selection and adaptation over time. We developed a multimodal framework integ...
